Description
Local mead producer located in a clean quiet area of the Třeboň region full of meadows, forests and ponds

Miroslav Bašta is a small local producer in the Třeboň region. It produces mead cooked from its own honey and surrounding local beekeepers. In addition to natural, it also offers other types, including the coveted almond, which is flavored with traditional methods, i.e. macerating crushed almonds without the use of aromas, as is common elsewhere.
The flavor of all meads is very
delicate.
Although as Mr. Bašta himself claims, he hardly drinks mead and prefers wine, he can make it very tasty and popular with
customers.

Bottle at home. Clear a bit pale golden color, no head. Aroma is heavy honey, boozy and walnut strangely enough. Okay now that I've actually looked at the label it's not so strange after all, it is in fact a walnut mead 😂😂. I'm quite impressed tbh, good job getting that flavor in. It's also in the flavor, nicely mixed with the sweetness and honey. Alcohol better hidden in the flavor. Pleasant one. I like it. 8-6,5-7,5-8-7,5

Pours a clear golden yellow. Scent is very, very mild on the almond. mild honey (stronger than their walnut version, but still far less outspoken than the base mead) . Taste is full, sweet, very mild on the almonds (not recognizable, which is good for people like me) . generic, fairly weak flavored meadbase. Mild bitter touch again. Meh.

Pours a clear, golden yellow. Scent is less outspoken than the base mead, weirdly enough. Walnuts aren't at all recognizable to me. Very mild honey. Taste is Medium full, sweet, bit bitter. Not recognizable as wallnut to me, but different to their base due to the bitterness and more hidden honey aroma. Alcohol comes across much softer, too. Decent.

Pours a clear, golden yellow. Scent is pure, raw funky honey. definately outspoken. Perhaps a tad rough. Taste is full, fairly sweet indeed. Fairly simple, honey is rather rough, tad funky. noticable boozyness, despite being 'only' 11%. Easy going, OK mead.
