A pastry mead! How very interesting. Somewhat fruity for sure, fairly sweet, honey. Loads of flavours coming through, clearly some cinnamon, but light, which works wonderful. Maple adds some extra kick to the sweetness, berries offer relief. Awesome.

RBESG 2019. Ruby red color. Floral aroma and flavor with cinnamon, honey, blackberries, cassis, oak and vanilla. Massively sweet, but lots of fruit and sourness to compensate. Cinnamon in the finish. Great.

Cinnamon, maple, honey, blackcurrant, blackberries. An amazing mead, incredibly delicious - and I don't really like meads! To those of you that haven't heard the name Kollektiv Mead, you should get acquainted with it really soon. 4.5

Blackcurrants, sour cherries, honey, raspberries and other dark berries, black pepper. Surprisingly well-balanced (read: not excessively sweet) for a mead, the blackcurrant notes outstanding! I could seriously drink this every day. 4.3
