Tournament Mead, flavoured with ginger! However, the closest modern day equivalent to jousting we could think of is demolition derby, so you just need to find one of those to watch too.

This is the version with ginger. Is there a version without? Confused I am. Amber colour. Strong ginger aroma. Moderatre sweet. Again strong ginger notes. Average fnish. Oily palate.

Bottle sampled at The Vanguard at 1000 Trades, pours a clear pale yellow. Aroma is very herbal, with lots of treacle and honey nectar in back. Flavour is similar, with intensely sweet honey, complemented by plenty of herbs and spices, which end up stealing the show. Solid stuff, but not a huge fan.

Taster at the Stockbridge market. Nose is nice natural ginger. Palate is floral honey with ginger coming in all the way till the end. Not bad.

Glass at Reading BF 2016. To Simon Haddonsman who i shared a Bottle of Lyme Mead with 10 years ago here in a hotel room in Reading. Clear amber colour no head. Ginger on aroma along with sweet candied citrus fruits. It’s lovely though. Way too sweet but has a ginger sweet ginger edge. Some nougat lots of honey sweet sugar. Exactly what i expected and wanted. Unsubtle.
