As Tutti was coming to completion we managed to snag a freshly emptied 7.5yo Laird’s Apple Brandy barrel. The mead has spent more than a year there.
The mead is lovely dark red hue. Dense and really grips the glass. Polished to optical perfection. The nose is bold red fruit with that apple brandy showing. I get a bit of Apple Jolly Rancher aromas. I also get some raspberry candy too. So the name is fitting.
Flavors are a wonderful melange of fruity character. Obviously; with nine distinct fruits it’s impossible to pull them all separately. I get some fruit punch vibes, berry skins, and candy and floral vibes mingling with some vinous character from the oak. The barrel shows up on the finish.
