Bottle. It has a lighlty oily pour, clear and light golden in color. The aroma is mostly honey, with a distinct fruity and flowery twist I don’t really know if I like or not. Blackcurrant bush is what springs to mind. The flavor too goes in that direction, like a blend of blackcurrant and catpee. I don’t know really like that blend. Medium body, a bit oily and warming. Not bad in any way, but not my kind of mead. 111105

Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of fiulijn. Pours a clear pale golden. Odd flowery honey aroma. Medium body, sweet and buttery with flower accents and perhaps this edge of figs found in another of the same meadery’s products - a house character? The buttery notes are less pleasing though. 071011
