Marionberry is a melomel made purely from Willamette Valley Marion Blackberries. Like our ‘Blackberry’, Marionberry has a full, natural fruit acidity that is balanced by premium Orange Blossom honey sweetness to create an extremely flavorful mead. Very dark in color, the Marionberries provide a jammy, juicy fruit-forward character. This mead has great aging potential for many years, though it’s pure fresh fruit character may make it difficult to leave alone for long. Batch 2 was released 8/4/2018

Easter 3x3, day 1 dish 3. Paired with almond merengue, blackberry compote and white chocolate. Delicious mead and it only grows more mellow and easy drinking with time.
