Description:

I was a judge on this flight, and this particular mead had a wonderful combination of honey and mint flavor, and was light and refreshing. We rated it first partially because he had managed to get such character into such a light mead. I'm sure if I tried it, I'd end up with a watery mess. (I wonder, now, if he pasteurized it to stop at 1.019?)

Ingredients:

• 5.5 lbs Blue Ridge Mountain honey
• 0.5 oz Irish Moss
• 1 oz mint extract
• 1 t. water salts
