Schramm’s Mead Apple Crisp (Batch 2)
Mead 14 º
This luscious Fruit and Spice Mead evokes the sensory warmth of a freshly baked dessert. Utilizing premium Michigan apples via locally sourced cider, the profile is dominated by rich, stewed fruit notes and floral honey. The spice additions are expertly integrated; aromatic cinnamon and earthy nutmeg provide a structural counterpoint to the velvet-like sweetness of Madagascar vanilla bean. Despite its high ABV, the alcohol is seamlessly woven into a viscous, full-bodied frame, delivering a nostalgic experience reminiscent of a harvest kitchen. It masterfully balances the natural tartness of the cider fruit with the decadence of a spiced pastry.
Appearance. Deep gold to polished amber (SRM 6–9); brilliant clarity with no visible sediment. This is a still mead with no head formation or carbonation, exhibiting heavy legs or 'tears' on the glass due to high residual sugar and alcohol content.
Aroma. High intensity; bold aromas of baked apples mingled with wildflower honey. Significant spice character featuring warm cinnamon and woody nutmeg. The Madagascar vanilla bean provides a creamy, sweet perfume that bridges the fruit and honey. Clean fermentation profile with no discernible esters or phenols and no solventy alcohol.
Taste. Initial impression is decadent sweetness followed by a wave of spiced apple tartness. The honey flavor is rich and multi-dimensional. Distinct flavors of apple pie filling and vanilla bean paste predominate. Cinnamon and nutmeg add a pleasant, drying spice depth that prevents the mead from becoming cloying. The finish is long and lingering, tasting of spiced cider, with a clean, warming alcohol presence.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and highly viscous; a syrupy, tongue-coating texture. Carbonation is absent (still). Notable alcohol warmth that is smooth and well-integrated rather than harsh. No astringency from the spices, resulting in a soft, velvety mouth-coating sensation.
