Valentine marries the focused acidity and crisp flavor of whole red raspberries with the unmistakably deep and rich aromatics of black currants. A combination of two of our most popular flavors, we are certainly sweet on Valentine. Pair with Duck confit, steak tartare, and someone you love.

Pours dark red, nearly black. Scent is intense, super natural fruityness (syrup). Cherry (with acidity) has the upperhand. A thcik honeybase beneath. Taste is full, syrupy intensity of fruits. Cherry remains the upperhand, but the raspberries aren't lost at all. Providing great balance trough acidity. Full honeyed base. lovely mead !

As with lots of meads, a bit over sweet for me. Intense massive raspberry black currant, floral honey notes with a lot of clarity on the freshness. It is well-made but not my thing. LCI

Absolutely addicted to this flavor, I guess currant + berry is my favorite mead blend, or currant + anything. Alone it hints at cranberry type dryness but with red raspberry it perfectly balances the sweet and dry finish. Jammy jolly rancher delish.

Magus, marjane, tugev mustsõstar, kuiv, mõrkjas, nats happeline. Hea.
