750mL swingtop bottle, pours a clear blonde / yellow with no head. Aroma packs loads of the saffron upfront, with oranges and light honey sweetness. Flavour is quite spicy and hot, with saffron, light oranges and alcohol. Not much honey. Very thin and lacking complexity. I fail to understand the ratings for this. A really subpar mead.

Bottle. Pours clear pale golden, still. Aroma is apple, Vicks. Flavor is whoah, saffron, still a hint of vapo rub, dry with a prominent bitterness, white wine esque, not much honey presence. Almost a lingering hard alcohol taste.

Bottle at Superstition. Pours a clear gold with no head. The aroma is strong floral and saffron. Thin mouth, strong saffron, sweet, floral, light finish, good.

Bottle share courtesy of Dak, thanks! It pours with a clear water looking body that has a slight yellow to gold hue to it. The aroma offers up spices that have a mix that’s earthy, a bit of curry and then a plastic waxy Barbie doll. The taste is earthy and plastic and waxy as well as spicy notes that have an edge of mild tartness and some booze. Interesting mead but this really doesn’t not do it for me where the finish is met by a decent dryness.
