Signature is a Traditional Honey Mead showcasing Welbeck Honey, raw, filtered but unpasteurised for depth of flavour. The bees forage from Hawthorn, Lime Blossom and Sweet Chestnut Blossom on the trees lining the avenues and woodlands of this historic English Stately Home nestled in the ancient Sherwood Forest. The esters from the honey produce almost sandalwood and definite lime hints. Light golden amber in colour and medium sweet, this brew is the mead from which all of our other brews originated. It is our signature blend. Presented in a tall squared off Apothecary clear glass bottle to showcase tone and clarity.

Panda at home, thanks to Ed Danlo, 04/02/24. Clear, still and calm looking, golden to light amber ... some bubbles form at the edge of the vessel. Nose is honey, candied orange peel, floral, sugars, water melon. Taste comprises honey, sugars, melon, floral, perfume, syrup and figs. Full bodied, light oily feel, semi drying close with a balanced kiss of alcohol. Solid well balanced straight up mead.

Taste is sweet, honey, flowery, mellow, booze, with alittle spice, some straw and hay. Oily mouthfeel, full bodied, low carbonation, sweet warming boozy finish with some lingering straw notes. Nicely sippable.
