375ml bottle from Green Bench shop.
Doré, léger huileux au verre.
Arôme est fin fleuri, plaisant, floral, orange blossom, avec une note onctueuse, organique miel en rétro)nasal. Goyave est discrète, mais une note tropical se ressent.
Palais est plaisant, frais, mielleux pas mal de fleuri, note mil-fleur, honeydew, goyave perce en retrait, plus dur à cerner sans le savoir, apport léger de tropical en fin de bouche.

11/IX/21 - 37.5cl bottle @ BBGG Summer Edition (Klaas & Liesbeth's place), BB: n/a (2021-1024) Thanks to sebletitje for sharing the bottle!
Clear orange blond mead. Aroma: rather soapy, alcohol, yeasty, fusels, floral, funky, chemical impression. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very soapy, unpleasant bitterness, floral, drying tannins (?), spicy, alcohol, sugary, apples. Aftertaste: sweet and sugary, alcohol, some apple juice, very weird and soapy, don’t like it very much…

Bottle pour at Green Bench, pours a clear pale golden blonde, no head. Aroma brings out sweet honey nectar, with light essence of guava. Flavour brings out lots of orange blossom honey, with plenty of alcohol and a very subtle guava character. Oily and decadent, leaving a pleasant warming finish. Very nice.
