Rhubarb mead showcases the delicious pairing of honey and rhubarb. Served chilled or on the rocks, this tangy mead has the sweetness and fruitiness to pair it perfectly with blue cheese and terrines, as well as ice cream and fruit-based desserts.

Panda at home thanks to Colin / SHIG. A clear reddish peachy orange coloured pour with ahalo of loose off white head. Aroma is medium sweet, perfume, sandalwood, berries, hibiscus. little odd. Flavour is composed of medium sweet, perfume, honeysuckle. cola cube, perfume, brown sugars, light spice. Not much rhubarb, but but. Palate is medium sweet, sticky, light fine carbonation. Quite unique.

Moderate body, sticky texture, no carbonation. Quite nice, could have had more from the rhubarb though.
