Sample at the Meadery. This Mead is a clear honey-gold color and sticks to the side of the glass a bit. Potpourri aroma of lavender and cinnamon. Sweet and slightly syrupy body with flavors reminiscent of scented soaps. Spices, lavender, apple, and cinnamon are all present. Floral aftertaste with some fruity notes. Sort of disjointed aroma versus taste but decent overall.

Sample at the Meadery. This Mead is a clear reddish-Topaz color with decent legs. Raspberry aroma that has some medicinal notes. Semi-dry body with flavors of tart raspberry offset a little by honey and floral notes. Raspberry aftertaste with a slight cough syrup character. Decent overall.

Sample at the Meadery. Pours a slightly hazed yellow color and sticks to the side of the glass somewhat. Vinous nose with sweet honey notes. Semi-dry on the palate with flavors of flowers, honey and Chardonnay. The finish is fruity with a sweet honey aftertaste. Average overall.

Thanks to sliffy for sharing a bottle. My first crack at a Mead. Pours reddish-amber with a thin bone white head. Spotty lacing on the glass. Raspberry and cherry aroma. Medium body with tart raspberry flavor, plus notes of malt and lavender. The finish is fruity with a lingering floral aftertaste. Tasty and interesting overall.
