I had a bottle of the Chaucer's raspberry Mead yesterday while contemplating the directly proportional relationship between the rise in ambient heat here in SoCal and the increase in my electricity bill.
What I expected and what I got were two very different things.
I didn't get a sense of any raspberry flavour so I read the label on the bottle. Evidently the raspberry mead is a mixture of their regular mead, and their raspberry wine. It was a weird flavor and at $10 a bottle (500 ml), I was less than impressed.
It was astringent, and very thin on the raspberry character. Normally I drink my mead chilled, but I let this come up to room temperature. Not a really significant change though. Their regular mead is good, and fairly priced at $10/bottle (750) ml. but I won't be wasting my money on their raspberry mead anytime soon again.
Oskaar
