Mead is a great, ancient drink with a lot of history that everyone should try, unfortunately, Maxwell Honey Mead is one of the worst I've ever had the displeasure of consuming. Please don't let this terrible product be your defining mead experience.

Smooth taste.Excellent mead Great flavours and aftertaste .
This is a good commercial mead.If you aerate this mead like some red wines it makes the flavours come out and develop properly.This mead is not aged like most traditional mead's, so benefits from aeration or a week aging after opening and mixing to bring out the true flavours of this mead.
