Where Orchard Fruit Meets Honey in Golden Clarity!
What does this mead taste like? Hive & Hollow Traditional Dry Cyser shines with pale gold clarity, blending the crispness of orchard-fresh apples with the subtle depth of honey. Its aroma is clean and inviting, opening with bright apple notes laced with delicate nectar. The flavor is sharp yet balanced, with refreshing apple acidity softened by a quiet thread of honey that lingers lightly on the finish. Bold yet refined, this dry cyser captures the essence of hive and orchard in a single, vibrant pour.
And now for the possibly funny, possibly serious, possibly irreverent flowery description....
In the quiet hollow of an apple orchard where autumn sunlight slants through weathered branches and the air is sweet with the aroma of fallen fruit, Hive & Hollow Traditional Dry Cyser finds its inspiration. It pours a pale golden hue, clear as late-season light after the fall harvest. The aroma carries the crisp snap of fresh-pressed apples mingled with a delicate thread of honey. Each sip begins with bright orchard acidity, clean and invigorating, then settles into a subtle warmth that recalls the hive. At 12.5% ABV, it is bold yet balanced, a union of hive and hollow, capturing the season’s fleeting brilliance in a glass.
