B. United International Inc. - Lurgashall Special Reserve Mead

After the mixture is fermented out to dryness, it is racked and filtered down to a clear state. Now, the liquid is ready to be pumped into oak barrels, which have previously been used for rum and whisky maturation. The mead picks up flavors of the whisky and rum, and finally, after six months, is ready to be filtered and bottled.

The finished product is a completely different type of mead, more complex and drier than traditional versions.
