A lovely blend of Lindisfarne's famous mead and blackcurrant wine. So named after Odin's Ravens 'Huginn & Munnin' who fly the world and return to sit on Odin's shoulders, whispering all they have seen and heard.

Bottle from Northumbrian Gifts. Pours clear still red. Aromas of blackcurrant and boiled sweets, light sulphur. Taste is more of the same. Definitely a bit eggy, but not as bad as the last one I had from them.

Bottle pour at and thanks to SHIG, 16/04/23. Light cherry red with no head. Nose is sugars, red berry syrup, honey, light alcohol fumes. Taste comprises sweet red berries, sugars, honeycomb, booze. Full bodied, oily feel, balanced rising alcohol. Okay mead if lacking some complexity.
