The_3_Staples: Actually, now that I think on it, I think I remember the first time NOT checking it in because Denny S., Patti S., and I were so blown away by it.

Bottle 180 of 529. Sticky sweet raisin and bread pudding. Toffee, caramel, figs, molasses. What a killer mead.

Mellowed as it's warmed, almost to 1st time stages. I think the most concerning thing is that I am missing check-ins. I know 2020 wasn't my 1st check-in. Nick 's 1st check in was 19 & I sent it to him, so I'm guessing it/they were before that.

Nick: Oh man, this is sooooo good. I'm pretty sure I have another one you sent me and I need the perfect time to open it!
The_3_Staples: Nick I'm so glad that it's still holding strong. I need to lightly/not chill in the future.

The older this gets, the more it falls off. Too chilled could be playing a part too, but it almost tastes like the separate adjuncts are, indeed, separating. Becoming more boozy, too. And a bit thinner. Doesn't bode well for the stockpile in the basement.

Great on the nose & smooth on the tongue. Great gift from a friend who went to Asheville and found this at a festival.
