Amber colour. Has a rich honey syrup nose. Sticky, rich, and with some floral complexity. Good dessert mead.

Bottle from the meadery, best before 01.01.2015; 17% ABV
Measured Final Gravity: 1144
Hazy golden color. Strong aroma of honey, honeycomb, wax. As the gravity measure suggests, it’s extremely sweet; too direct honey flavor. Maybe because of the ABV, it seems slightly less sweet than the Odin Gold.
Too much to be drinkable, although it doesn’t taste bad; I should use it in a cocktail.

Bottle, pours a clear golden orange with no head. Nose is extremely syrupy with loads of honey and lots of sweetness. Flavour is extremely syrupy and honey-like, with a viscous palate - not quite as cloying as the Odin Gold, but still very much so. Good mead, with medium complexity.
