A blonde mead with a rather interesting wild grass honey and wood chips...someone next to me said it reminded them of port-o-potty wood shavings. In mouth, a light sweet honey with clovers, mint wild funk, nice. Tasted a Shelburne Vineyards, April 7 2012.

Sampled from the bottle. Poured a clear deep gold with no head whatsoever. Aroma was sweet with honey and a nice combination of spice including cardamon and citrus peel. Flavor was similar with the spice being well balanced with nutmeg and cardamon coming through and working nicely with the honey.

Sampled from the bottle at the shop. Poured a clear pale gold with no head whatsoever. Aroma was sweet with honey with a bit of a fruit backing and a hint of flora. Flavor brought out more than just honey with a bit of fruit and flora for some complexity. Nice and smooth.
