Solsletta 160522. Deep red color with no head. Aroma is honey, cherries. Flavor is honey, herbs, cherries, lemon, spices, vanilla. OK mead.

Bottle. An oily pour, almost unclear, and dark red in color. Still. The aroma feels quite spiced, borderline cough medicine, with cherry, vanilla and a light lemony hint. Not much honey going on. It's full-bodied, sweet and warming, flat and mostly cherry flavored. Some spiced, herbal notes, honey, heather, lemon hints, some custard notes and vanilla. Lasting sweet, fruity finish with some honey and heather in the back. Vanilla and custard notes. A bit weird this one, but very nice in several aspects. 220518
