Heidrun Alfalfa and Clover Blossom

Our trademark Champagne-style of mead is light, dry, delicate and refreshing, with subtle exotic aromas and flavors found only in the essence of honey. This varietal is produced from a prairie honey we procure out of Glacier County, Montana, on the border of Glacier National Park. The honey is a blend of 60% cultivated alfalfa honey and 40% wild clover. It’s the lightest honey we’ve ever worked with — really beautiful stuff. Producing meads from light, subtle honeys can be a great challenge because off-flavors have nowhere to hide. When properly executed, however, the results are breathtaking. This varietal delivers a sublimely succulent, brut dry bubbly with hints of crisp honeydew melon, pear, green olive, and jasmine. It has a terrific effervescence and its color is so crystalline that, in the glass, it might be mistaken for sparkling water.
