Rhubarb Mead
Tangy & Sweet in Harmony
A refreshingly smooth, balanced mead crafted with local clover honey - infused with rhubarb during fermentation.
Our mead maker grew up in Southland, where rhubarb thrived in his backyard ending up in dessert crumbles or over weet-bix. Inspired by those memories, we chose the tang of rhubarb to balance the sweetness of honey - the contrast creates perfect harmony, making this our most popular variety.
TASTING NOTESSweet and smooth up-front, finishes with a rhubarb-y tang. Mouth-feel of a rosé, as its colour suggests.
