Hi,
I was reading today about honey in general, and found some evidence that stated honey actually helps the body process alcohol faster. This was in the context of it assisting in hangovers. The reason this was stated is because honey helps our bodies process the alcohol faster.
Then I got to thinking about how mead hits me from the buzz perspective. I really don't drink a lot, so I'm sort of a light weight for my size, but I'm pretty sure mead hits me hard and fast, and then the buzz is gone/killed quickly. This almost makes sense if my body is truly processing the honey faster.
Just thought I'd throw this out here and see if others experience the same thing.
I'm all out of mead, so I look forward to experimenting again once this next round of batches is where I want them to be.
