This vibrant Fruit and Spice Mead showcases a sophisticated union of Orange blossom honey, succulent strawberries, and crisp rhubarb. The sensory journey begins with an inviting bouquet where the perfumed, citrusy notes of the honey meld seamlessly with the aroma of sun-ripened berries and a sharp, vegetal tang. On the palate, a delicate balance emerges between the lush, jammy sweetness of the fruit and the refreshing acidity of the rhubarb. At 13.3% ABV, a well-integrated warmth supports the semi-sweet finish, while the Orange blossom honey provides a lingering floral elegance that rounds out this complex, award-winning profile.
Appearance.Luminous rose-gold to light ruby in color with brilliant clarity. As a still mead, it lacks foam or carbonation, exhibiting heavy legs on the glass indicative of its high alcohol content.
Aroma.High intensity; prominent floral and citrus-zest notes from the Orange blossom honey are primary. These are layered with a secondary aroma of fresh, ripe strawberries and a distinctively tart, slightly earthy rhubarb edge. Clean fermentation profile with a hint of spirituous warmth and no yeast-derived phenols.
Taste.Initial impression is a burst of semi-sweet honey and berry fruit. The flavor of Orange blossom honey contributes a refined floral character that balances the tart, zesty acidity of the rhubarb. Strawberry notes are natural and jammy. No hop bitterness or malt presence. The finish is clean and lingering, with a balanced interplay between honey sweetness and fruit acidity.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full body with a smooth, syrupy texture that remains drinkable due to the rhubarb-driven acidity. Carbonation is absent. A significant, pleasant alcohol warmth is felt in the throat, without any harshness or fusel burn.
