Mead is correct. Making a big 23L batch of traditional with just the honey for flavour and then will split it after fermentation to play around with adding oak, tannins, acids and back sweetening to start to explore how they all effect the final product :D
It looks easy enough, its a pretty quick process by the looks of it. Just mix some ingredients, add yeast, leave for a day and then bottle, consume in about a week
From what i read you make then bottle straight away and it is meant to be low alcohol, if you left it for a month you would have to be alot more careful regarding sugar quantity otherwise you would end up with higher abv and risk of bottle bombs.
I dont have any bottles at the moment because none of our batches are ready to bottle yet, maybe ill grab a few extra when i buy some and ill give it a go for you :)
That is a lot of honey. I just finished a 500g jar I bought probably 2 years ago!
Is it just for general eating, or do have special plans for it?

I want you as a friend so I can steal your mead.
Friends dont steal friends mead :P
It would be a trade for my amazing company. Also, I can help make it, I have experience brewing beer and washes!
Can you make sima?

A month is better apparently, but that’s neither here nor there I suppose.
I’ll buy some off you if you feel up to the challenge?
