Sweet, nice bit of fruit, but bit honey as well. Big alcohol, lots of woody accents, sticky.

Pour from a 375mL bottle. Pours clear pale ruddy brown. Warm honey and plum sugar on the nose. Flavour has well-fermented honey, plums, gentle tannic plum skins, slight acidity. Wonderfully balanced, fantastic mead.

375mL bottle, pours a dark mahogany. Aroma has rich plum, syrupy honey, and some sugars. Flavour has rich, elegant plum, semi-syrupy honey, and a hint of vanillin. Treacly toffee and plum finish. Wonderful stuff.

Meadvent calendar 1. Slightly purplish red, looks thick. Smell has some alcohol, sweet rich honey and plenty of plum. Body is thick, syrupy sticky. Quite sweet, but in a lovely plum way as well. Fruit is soft and ripe. Decadent. Very nice start of this.

375ml bottle pours out clear plum color. Nose is nice big sweet honey notes and some tart plums. Taste is more of the nice big natural sweet honey and a little plum tart zing. Another amazing Pips mead.
