Commercial Description:
Lubelski is produced with the addition of wild forest fruits to nectar honey.

One litre of Półtorak mead contains 720 g of natural honey. Półtorak mead matures for several years to achieve full clarity. In time its rich aroma hides a high content of alcohol (16%) and acidity forming the finest liquor there is. It has a subtle though clearly discernible aroma.

Bottle, thx to thewolf. Pours a clear, golden body with no head. Quite oily. Alcohol, sweetness, honey and hints of heather in the aroma. The flavor is sweet, with warming alcohol, honey and a little heather. Oily, full-bodied mouthfeel. The finish is long with sweetness and honey. A beautiful mead, just like the other Apis meads I’ve had, but this one was a bit on the sweet side. (080301)

(on bottle, thanx to thewolf) Ambercolor and no head. Serious alcoholaroma, get´s almost burning and plum-like. Fat mouthfeel, the sugars and alcohol really heats up and leaves little room for any tasteindicators, aside from that thick and luxurious honey.
