My daughter likes sweet meads and mentioned to her baby daddy that I made meads, something he had never really even heard of. We started with a braggot from 2007 made from the second runnings of a porter and 10 pounds of honey. I was surprised at how good it was after 10 years in the laundry room cabinet. Very dry but no oxidation or off flavors, it was still very good. Then we had a 2006 prickly pear mead-also very dry but delicious. Next up was a friend's 2010 sweet mead(all the info on the label) that was good but not spectacular. And thee last one was my 2016 prickly pear mead, first time it's been tasted since I racked it to a keg for aging last year. It's good but will be better in the next few years.
