During the summer of 2020 our friend Christian Nielsen spent plenty of time foraging the grounds of his estate for a cornucopia full of berries. He then decided to give us the opportunity to make a mead from most of those berries. That mead is Mr Nielsen's Cornucopia 2020! This is a dessert mead made with orange blossom honey and wild aronia, bilberries, blackberries, black currants, raspberries and red currants. Sweet, tart and fruity this mead is best enjoyed just below room temperature, with some of your favorite cheeses.

Bottle pour at MBCC 2023, pours a clear golden with a tiny white head. Aroma is on the drier side for a mead, with subdued rosemary and wildflower honey. Flavour is rich and medium sweet, with tons of wildflower honey and light-medium sweetness on the finish. Good stuff.

Tap. Clear golden color with no head. Aroma is flowery honey, not so much apples, some beeswax. Taste is the same, there the apples come in, some tannins in the back. Oily mouthfeel, flat. Good one!
