B. Nektar Episode 13
Mead 15.5 º
B. Nektar Episode 13 is a commanding Specialty Mead that delivers a powerful sensory experience. The profile is defined by a deep, floral honey foundation that is intricately layered with the influences of bourbon barrel aging. Pronounced aromas of toasted vanilla, charred oak, and rich caramel lead into a decadent, viscous palate. The natural sweetness of the honey is balanced by the structural tannins of the wood, while the substantial alcohol content provides a luxurious, integrated warmth. This mead concludes with a lingering finish of dark fruit esters and spirit-forward complexity, embodying a bold and sophisticated character.
