Poured from a 375ml bottle. Honey, vanilla, spicy coffee, fruity. This finished drier then I thought it would making it drinkable. A very interesting mead.

Really interesting bottle thanks to Dallas! Pours a clear yellow color. A nice rich nose of honey, floral notes and banana. The flavor is immediately full of big vanilla, some light coffee, huge honey, viscous, banana. Very good.

4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottle from Charles Street Liquors. 15.2% edition. "Romance by the glass". Shit, maybe I should change out of these sweat pants.
Baby Duvel tulip. Soggy cork. Looks like Darjeeling tea.
Sweet, fruity, tart, nougat-y scent. Mild, chocolaty, tobacco-infused coffee lingers about.
Early apple tartness lends way to tobacco, melding earthy/woody vanilla, baking chocolate, smoke, & just a drip of hazelnut-like coffee. Bitter, lingering apple peel/core.
Smooth, deep, & decently bitter, despite the sweetness. Coffee doesn’t get too intense. Could try to be a bit denser, but it tastes invigorating & relaxing at the same time. Definitely should let this sweat before popping. Caffeine!
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
Clear yellow syrupy pour with no head. Epic vanilla bourbon notes lead to espresso and creamy caramel. Uber sweet but very flavorful, and never cloying. Syrupy thick palate with a sweet finish.
3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle ($22.19 375ml). Pours with a clear golden body with strong legs. Still. Aromas of huge, spicy coffee. Lightly vegital, peppery, tobacco, vanilla, honey, earthy. A hint of acidity. A bubblegum like ester. Really different. Minimal alcohol. Flavors are ... wow. Interesting! Rich, earthy, spicy coffee. Huge tobacco notes. Vanilla creamer. A very interesting coffee experience. Medium sweet. Light tannin and a touch of acidity in the finish that helps balance the sweetness nicely. Well constructed on that account. A faint hint of smoke from the coffee. Medium to slightly full bodied for a mead. Good viscosity. Still. Not hot at all. Possibly a good cigar mead right here. Really good, very unique!
