Bottle. Pours a deep purple color. Huge sugary legs. The aroma is massive berries, honey and some wood. Sugary, huge honey, clear blueberries, very slick viscous palate. Drinkable as all hell. Lovely.

Magnum at RBSG 17 Grand Tasting. Had sampled this once before, so anxious to tick it for good. As great as I remembered, really full aroma of blueberries and cashews. Taste too is spot on, like you were eating fresh blueberries. This mead’s got it going on!

Bottle at RBSG Boise. Dark purple color with some bubbles. Aroma is rich with blueberries and cashews? I don?t think I?ve ever smelled casheews, but dammit they?re here. The taste is devastatingly accurate. Big time sweet ripe blueberries? it?s like syrup. I want to pour this over pancakes. So rich and potent. Absolutely decadent.

Magnum at RBSG Grand Tasting. Pours a dark purple with no head. The aroma is vanilla, cashews, honey, blueberry. Thick, jammy, insanely sweet, cashews, blueberry, vanilla, honey, really enjoyed this.

375ml a few times this mead is crazy good. WOW pours out a purple blue color. Nose is out of this world the honey sweet notes blueberries combo with the toast cashews. If you thought the nose was great you have not tasted it yet. Boom another level berries cashew honey combo amazing.
