200 ml bottle. Pours a clear golden/copper color. Aromas of herbs, balsam, thick honey, and spice. Flavors of sweet honey, spice, herbs and possibly some chocolate. There is a lot going on. Quite sweet. I like...

Golden color. Intense aroma, perfumy talc, balsa tree.
Thick, sweet, syrupy, luscious, honey and Mead flacor, a bit biscuity, herbal; powerful alcohol kick, useful for balancing the sugars. Deep final.
Rich and decadent.

200mL bottle, pours a clear caramel golden with a few bubbles. Aroma is intense and rich, with loads of treacle, pine needles, tarragon, vanilla and heavy wildflower honey -- super decadent. Flavour is extremely decadent, with a harmonious mix of treacle toffee, vanilla, coffee, light pine needles, and some faint spices. Quite a big alcohol burn, but it's more warming than anything. Finishes heayv sweet on the honey without being cloying. Really a lovely mead.
