50ml bottle from Alnwick Castle. Pours clear brown, still. It's got legs, mind you. Aromas of honey, toffee and booze. Taste is burnt sugar, raisins, spice and booze heat. Sweet finish.

Aus der Flasche im 2018-07 auf Holy Island getrunken. Dieses dunkle Met erinnert nicht nur in der Farbe an dunklen Rum, sondern auch etwas im Geschmack. Doch neben der kräftigen Süsse ist nicht viel und macht das Met doch sehr eindimensional. Wer es mag - Cheers!

Sampler at Woodhorn Museum. Appearance - like a dark rum. Dark brown to black. Nose - brown sugar, wood spice. Taste - more brown sugar, light liquorice. Palate - rich and full bodied. Overall - probably the weakest in the range but ok.

At the discover Mead event at Beerlovers bar. Pours dark ( coca cola like color ) Smell is sweet, candy, rather full. Taste is full, sweet, intense, dark candy. Bit plasticy by the end, but otherwise a damn fine mead.
