Can't get there, looks like a patron thread; however, the judging guidelines state that any mead in any category can be oaked, but to much oak flavor is a flaw.

I'll be putting some oak cubes with a traditional in a quart jar and checking it on a weekly basis.

~chuckle~ I am the one that has aged my elder mead (port style) in oak for 6 (actually 7) years. But it was mostly neutral By that time. I had to add oak staves to it to get oak into it. The barrel aging was mostly for the micro evaporation and the concentration that brings. I will be bringing a couple of bottles of it to the mazer cup this year, if anyone wants to taste it.
