375 ml bottle shared by TJ. Aroma has cranberry and honey. The tartness of the cranberry balance the honey. The tartness really makes this nice!

Bottle pour shared by Chalumeaux--thanks, TJ! Clear amber with no head/lacing. Aroma is strong honey, cranberry, cherry and marzipan. Taste follows aroma. Smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Wow! If all meads were like this, I would be a mead fan! Well balanced exceptional aroma and flavor!

Undated 375mL shared by Chalumeaux on 4/12/24. Pink-red. Clear. Cranberry, orange peel, watermelon. Not getting almond. Rich honey, very sweet. Soft, mellow, no booze. Fruity. Tart and sweet, rich and juicy. Did nt get a ton of almond but I'm Guess not it's adding balance. The cranberry is fruity, juicy, not too tart but does add appropriate acidity. Maybe a bit of cherry vanilla in there.

Taster showing cranberry pink.
The nose shows intense notes of ripe cranberries and toasted almonds in perfect balance.
The palate is light bodied. Balanced sweetness with a moderate acidic edge balanced out by almonds to rein in the tartness.
