Bottle. Pours a clear syrup like amber with no head whatsoever. Aroma has a nice sweet bourbon note that melds nicely with the honey and has just a touch of dryness. Flavor has the same nice combination of sweet honey and sweet bourbon that is slightly warming with a hint of dryness.

Courtesy of Jan (fonefan), as Sweet Desire Mead, 14,5%
Yellow color, with a light golden hue. The aroma is interesting, with alcohol, spices, strong bourbon vanilla; brutal in the front, elegant later. Good body strength, with medium sweetness; honey flavor, with strong alcohol presence, medium character of oak, even vinous; the final has some light bitterness and alight herbal character.
Very good, a bit over the top.
