Steely amber color. Aromas and flavors of wax candles, lanolin, strawberry jellies, hints of bacon, and compressed cantaloupe with a supple, soft, fruity sweet medium-to-full body and an effortless, brisk finish. A waxy, fruity meady mead for honey-heads.

About
Melomel
Melomel is a traditional mead to which fruit has been added. The fruit character is the driver here, and whether dry or sweet should be very evident. Key here is a natural, ‘off-the-vine’ evocation rather than any suggestion of artificial flavorings.
