25cl bottle 2016 tasted feb 2024 hazy yellow, few clear bubbles as head aroma of sweet honey mead with finer refreshing mint like herbal notes also. a bit of earthy notes. fainter sweet woody notes. no oxidation even though the bottle is not new. complex but still very meady, lovely aroma. flavor is sweet honey, some woody and slighly oxidized notes, flowers, faint fresh red fruits fruitiness, pretty nice mead flavor, more complex than just fermented honey, but the complexity does not hold back the honey, complements it.

Bottle shared at Sahtipaja tasting @ kwartje. Hazy pale golden with no head. Sweet honey, very floral, chamomile, bourbon, vanilla, cinnamon, Belgian waffle, lemon peel. Big sweet, light spicy booze, moderate bitter. Medium body and low carbonation.
