Tasting at Papsø’s
Cloudy light blond color. Aroma of honeydew, with a nice fruity and flowery edge; light elderflower. The mouthfeel is quite weak, and semi-dry; the carbonation doesn’t help it; there is a common honey flavor.
The aroma is better than the flavor; not my style, but quite well done.

Honey Gardens Black Currant Mead
Corked bottle at Papsø’s; 12% ABV
Dark color, dark ruby; sparkling. Nice, mild aroma; vinous, with berry juice; very light smell of Band Aid or hospital disinfectant; sweat. The mouthfeel is quite dry, and astringent too; if any honey flavor, it’s very low, while the berry flavor is not to strong but at least more evident; unfortunately there is an extremely strong flavor of chemicals and disinfectants. The final as said is quite astringent. Not good, not well brewed.

Honey Gardens Blueberry Mead
Corked bottle at Papsø’s; 12% ABV
Dark ruby color. The aroma is mild but quite nice, with elderberries, some cherries and a touch of elderflowers. The mouthfeel is quite dry, with a degree of astringency; no honey flavor; mild blueberry juice flavor; the final is even more astringent. Strange, different Mead; and not flawed as the Black Currant version.

Honey Gardens Melissa Sparkling Mead
Very pale, straw coloured beverage with no head and a very light sparkling carbonation. The aroma is lightly honeyish with a bit of floral/honeyed character. Lightly yeasty flavour, soft floral sweetness but generally bland and lacking in character. It really just tastes like fizzy wildflower honey. I was expecting so much more.
