Fanal Cryo Ugandan Vanilla 2024

A freeze-concentrated cherry mead (or ice melomel if you will). Aged on a serious amount of Ugandan vanilla beans. What happens when you take an already ultra-concentrated no-water melomel - and go even further by freeze-concentrating the cherry component, cutting its water content in half? You get an insane saturation of pure cherry flavor, a glass-destroying lacing and an explosive acid/sweetness balance which let the flavors of pure cherry and honey linger forever. Well, that's our opinion. What's yours? ------------------------------ 2024 ------------------------------ *276 bottles made* Honey variety: Wildflower from Lillesand and Konnerud Cherry variety: Fanal from Svelvik *The vintage year refers to the harvest year of the ingredients*
