Bottle sampled at The Vanguard at 1000 Trades, pours a clear pale yellow, no head. Nose is fairly herbaceous, with light honey nectar and some cabbage. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of herbal character to the honey. Medium-to-intensely sweet, with the herbal character permeating throughout. Nice stuff.

175ml draft at the Pestle and Mortar, Hinckley. Golden brown, clear, flat. Sweet and musty aroma, with honey and cinnamon overtones. Taste is sweet with a touch of sourness. Sweet spice and brandy butter in the aftertaste. Thick gooey palate. Not a world beater on any day but a decent Mead on the sweet side. Would have again in a hot minute.

Enormous thanks for Cuso for sharing this with us! Golden body. Minty honey aroma, light alcohol. Sweet minty taste, without many traces of fermentation really, simple, clean, with a freshness that prevents it from being cloying - enormously tasty!

Intensely aromatic, spiced, similar mix to Slovak Demanovka. Otherwise there actually is light mint. Very easily drinkable, tasty.

Clear golden color with no head. Rich honey and some flowery notes in the aroma. Medium + body. Oily and a bit sweet. Dry ending. Rich honey, berries fruity and very floral flavor. Not my cup of mead. But could not fine anything wrong with it.

Bottle at Reading Beer Festival 2015. Clear gold no head. Nutty nougat mead honey aroma. Wow that’s lovely. The finish is like vegetables but in a good way. Like carrots but not quite carrots. That is awesome sweetness up front character dry character underneath. Wow. Lovely. Still it’s got carrots. Simon would have loved it. God bless him.
