by admin on Jul.25, 2007, under mead, metheglin, wine
Background: Redstone Meadery is located in Boulder, Colorado and produces a wide range of meads. This medium-dry metheglin is fermented by Montrachet yeast, flavoured with juniper berries and made from a mix of orange blossom and desert blossom honey.
Presentation: Cobalt-blue flip-top bottle. Pours a clear light gold. 12% ABV.
Nose: Caramel and fresh honey sweetness, some generic fruit and more honey.
Taste: Starts with a clear semi-sweet floral honey taste, progressing to a juniper-influenced middle and a short, dry, slightly spicy finish.
Overall: Excellent. Not too sweet, well-balanced, with just the right amount of juniper.
