RAspberry Melomel.
Sanguis Nobilis Plus Ultra is a raspberry Melomel inspired by the ‘American style’ fruitbombs. Really fruity and in your face. Most Blacksmith’s Meadery fans know that we’re upping the fruit and honey volumes significantly each new batch. As far as the Sanguis series is concerned we may have reached the endpoint of that. As a result Sanguis Nobilis Plus Ultra is (quite a lot) sweeter then what you may have come to expect from our meads, but the sweetness is in perfect counterpoint to the acidity and the tannins of the fruit.
The Plus Ultra variety of the Sanguis series is not an easy drinker for hot summer days. These are meads to curl up with in front of the fireplace (or Netflix, whatever floats your boat). Of course you can perfectly enjoy them on a summer evening on the terrace, with an ice cube…
Also: be sure to check out our Cocktail page. Zoot is a mixed drink based on this mead.
