Mead Journal: Raspberry Thyme
Well, I took out the oak and the Thyme. The Thyme was only in for about 1 1/2 weeks. I tasted it from the drain off of the oak. always a little.
The thyme has yet to integrate into the flavor, that's why we have aging. But it tasted good and smelled awesome. I MUST do anther raspberry because wow the scent and flavor is just awesome. A bit sweet but once the thyme get's integrated into the flavor it should be good. And after aging, mucho awesome.
The last step before bottling is that I am going to rack it one more time and put in some sparkloid to clear it up a bit more. Then wait for that to take effect and bottle, then age 6 months to a year. I should be bottling it in June or late May. Then I need to turn it over to it's owner.
I also need to get images and make the lable.
Should be fun.
