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.

Bottle sampled at The Vanguard at 1000 Trades, pours a clear bronze, a few bubbles head. Aroma brings out lots of rhubarb syrup and honey nectar. Flavour is very syrupy and cloyingly sweet, with rhubarb extract, honey nectar and intense medicinal sweetness. This is just not good - cloying, artificial, and lacking depth. Not a fan.
