Bottle @ Patricks. Clear golden body without carbonation or any head, slightly oily viscosity in body. Strong impression in aroma, still balanced with not too dominating honey scent, also slightly floral, a touch of toffee and warming alcohol. Taste has mild but distinct honey, a touch of toffee and also some kind of apple cider acidity. The balancing acidity seems almost to be the signature of Mythology meads basted on the one I have sampled so far. Fine body with long lasting, sweet aftertaste ending with a warming alcoholic feeling down the throat. Probably the best base mead I have tasted, still prefer some more complex mixed type of mead.

Bottle, at Patrick's. An oily pour reveals a dark golden colored body, clear, with a few bubbles on top. Quite alcoholic aroma, stinging in the nose almost like some brown spirits, although more gentle. Caramel hints, cellar, wood, flower notes and a vague honey touch. It's full bodied and warming, oily, with some sweetness. Honey and caramel notes, toffee, cellar, wood and alcohol. Lasting finish. A quite intense one, almost demanding to drink, but clean and tasteful. Sure need to try this one again later on. 230421

Bottle, at Patrick's. A more or less clear one, deep golden in color, oily pour. Extremely elder flower dominated aroma, yet with room for honey and a hint of alcohol. Citrusy, flowery, lightly woody. It's warming and full bodied, velvety, with a gentle bitterness. Some hints of tannins too. Elderflower runs the show on the palate too, citrusy, flowery and very lightly woody, on a backdrop of honey and sweetness. Some alcohol notes in the very end. A really pleasant one indeed, summer mead for sure. 230421

Golden, flat, slightly oily body with no head. Aroma has light honey with a floral touch. Gives me an association of a warm summer day in the middle of a flower meadow. Taste is light honey, flowers, some fruity acidity, and a light touch of herbs. Sweet but still refreshing. The alcohol is well camouflaged and feels more warming than alcoholic. Perfect balanced body with rather long-lasting aftertaste. Nice balance between sweetness and acidity. Very nice, but so far the Agdir is my favorite with a bit more taste and complexity.

Bottle, at Patrick's. A clear one, deep golden to copper in color, still and headless, lightly oily. Intense aroma with honey and caramel and a bit too much alcohol. Some flowery notes, cellar and a light mushroom hint. It's oily and full bodied, warming and sweet on the palate, with lots of caramel flavor. Honey, flower, cellar and heavy caramel sauce. Hints of dried fruit and a good dash of alcohol. Some oak notes. Lasting finish. Wouldn't mind having this one at a bit lower ABV, on the other hand that might remove some of the character. Nice anyway. 230316

Bottle @ Patricks. Clear, slightly oily, brown/mahogany body under a few, short living bubbles against the glass. Aroma has honey, dry fruit, hint of wood and slightly spicy. Taste is sweet, smooth honey, dark fruit, dry fruit, wood, sherry and a slightly touch of acidic berries. Full bodied with long lasting, pleasant aftertaste. Nice, complex, balanced and surprisingly easy drinkable mead.
