Banana Pancake Prestige is the newest version of our meads aged in special store pick barrels. This particular batch of Banana Pancake was paired up with a store pick Jack Daniels barrel from Aman's. Jack Daniels, known for providing banana aromatics and flavors, seemed like a perfect pairing for this iteration of Banana Pancake. Aged for 8 months in the barrel, this batch is bigger all around than previous iterations of this mead. Besides just a much longer period of time in the barrel, this batch saw various other adjustments in the recipe to help further differentiate it from batches before. A shift to a dark robust maple from Vermont, along with a touch more cinnamon worked in all help to pop the flavors against the extended age time.

Bottle shared. Thanks Adam! Pours a viscous amber to brown color with a nice glossy color. Aromas of pancakes, maple syrup, bananas and cinnamon on the nose. Good viscosity on the palate with banana, nuts and maple syrup. Smooth finish with syrup and whiskey lingering and the abv hidden so well.
