Bottle shared in Watford - picked up in NH. Pours clear yellow-gold. Rich honey in the snout, light alcohol, florals, tangerine. Medium sweet flavour with definite alcohol boost, some lemony accents, moderate honey, some spicy notes, marmalade. Medium to full bodied, and lightly chewy. Warming finish, sweet but not syrupy, with more restrained honey, very faint smoke, tangerine. Interesting stuff. Not bad.

Bottle from Bert’s Brilliantly clear deep golden color with decent legs. Mild honey and floral notes with a touch of alcohol. Somewhat dry, a bit too much for my tastes.

Pours still, clear and pale yellow gold. The aroma is somewhat floral and simply fruity. Apple cider and roses. Mild honey. A touch of booze. Mouthfeel is thin and watery. Taste is washed out simple honey. Gets a fairly apple cider sour and hot at the close and it dominates the experience. It finishes very dry, dusty dry, but there’s some sweetness to the mead. Very mild floral honey in the taste. The aroma is nice enough, but the taste doesn’t live up to it. Flat.
