This mead is a case study in Stone Fruits. That is a broad family of fruits with a stone or a pit inside.
For this medley we used some banging organic honey by way of Brazil. We’ve added red plums from Chile, apricots from Turkey, yellow peaches from Georgia, dark sweet cherries from Michigan and tart cherries from Wisconsin.
We fermented this one with a blend of yeasts used for high intensity Shiraz and Pinotage. Then gently aged it on a bit of oak.
Lovely auburn red color with optically perfect clarity. It has great legs and moves beautifully in the glass. On the nose I get loads apricots and cherries. I even get some peach skins.
On the palate I get bright peaches, cherries, plum, raspberries and some florals.
It’s got some similarities to Blood Moon of a few months back. Stone fruits are known for being a bit acidic; it shows up here by really enveloping to tongue and teeth. Delightful stuff.
About the name…. You’ll notice that we added five fruits. As far as the TTB is concerned we only added 4 because they make no distinction between sweet and tart cherries. So we decided to make light of the situation.
