750ml @ Ryan's shared with Alex, Phill, and Josh, trying to figure out the Okanagan trip because weather is preventing us from Golden Ears camping 😬.
Aroma: smells like an ice cider - thick, very intense, sweet and sour. Some apple skin.
Taste: along the same lines, sweet, astringent. Some canned rainier cherries notes.
Overall: very nice.

Dark amber, aroma of corky aged mead. Sticky dark sugars, noticeable apple, thick and rich. The apple kind of rounds this out.

Bottled. A red mead. The aroma has notes of lingonberries, apples, and honey. The flavor is sweet with a tart edge and notes of lingonberries, apples, honey, and flowers, leading to a dry finish.

Corked bottle from Chemins de Bretagne, Paris
11% ABV, therefore about 4 years old
Beautiful amber color, bright, with a small cider-like head and a small fine perlage. The aroma is mostly cider, sweet, with some peculiar dustiness. Very sweet, with pleasant soft carbonation; mild flavor of syrup, honey and cider; in the final there is a mild and pleasant astringency.
Original, the one with most apple flavor of all the chouchen, very good.
