NV HoneyRun Winery Ragnor's Dry Mead 750 mL

This mead was not quite what I expected. I had only ever tried mead from Ireland, and it was sweet and warm. Apparently dry mead is a bit different in taste, as it was indeed very dry and much more bitter. Still good though, I enjoyed it.

This is an amazing product! Great company, friendly, and helpful. There was a slight issue, the company went WAY out of their way to make everything perfect. You can bet I'll be a repeat customer.

Very nice, dry mead. I can't drink wine, so this is a nice substitute. It's almost like a slightly honey-flavored dry champagne--and does have bubbles.

Great tasting mead, like how you expect mead should taste.

First off let’s say what this mead is not so we can get that out of the way. This mead is not fancy, it is not fair to compare it to some of the higher quality (and priced) meads, it is not sweet, it not semi-dry. What this mead is, however, is nice, cheap, strait forward and very dry mead. If you don’t know the difference in the types of mead and are expecting dessert wine type sweetness from this mead; you will be disappointed. If you are a regular mead drinker who appreciates a dry, non-novelty, mead than this is a pretty decent low cost option. You can get it here on Amazon for about the price that you will find it in-stores. It is semi-common to find it among stores that carry more than a couple kinds of mead. It had a nice light mouth feel that is good for wine-type fancy drinking but where it really feels right is drinking it in gulps like you would a beer. It goes down smooth and while it fills your senses it does not overpower them like a gulp of wine would. If you are planning on sharing it you should get a few bottles because it will go fast being drunk from steins and mugs in true Viking fashion. This is my standby mead and typically I will always pick up a bottle of this even as I am buying other meads. It is nothing to write home about but it is a good basic and traditional dry mead that is great for every day (not literally every day) drinking.

Good stuff!
