Whew! I think this mead’s vintage is 2009, at least. I think it might’ve needed a few more years of time to age/smooth out. Not sure.
The first taste is sooo bitter and acidic. I can taste the apple, of course. There’s so much apple taste that you can barely taste the honey. After a few sips, the dry/burn in the mouth subsides a bit.
Ouch. Ouch. This may be fine if you like exceedingly dry and bitey wines. Maybe it just needed to age some time? That’s probably it… Not likely buying this in the future.
