Honeyrun Mead “Ragnar’s Reserve”
by Paul Arthur on Mar.12, 2009, under mead, wine
Background: Weighing in at 12% ABV, this is mead at its simplest: no fruit, no sweetness, no nonsense.
Nose: Gentle, fruity honey.
Taste: Much like the nose. Slight bready notes from the yeast. A hint of alcoholic heat.
Overall: Nothing stunning, but decent (and dry, which all too few commercial meads are).
