Has anyone ever used agave nectar for wine/mead making? I've used it for the last few years and think it is amazing! Floral agave wines make me a very happy man.

I'm looking for documentation regarding the fermentation and sugar make-up of agave. Anyone seen any?!

Thank you! Trails & Ales!

sounds interesting, but I've never priced agave nectar and it might be even more expensive than local honey, which is almost impossible on my budget.
 
I have 1 gallon of it awaiting bottling at the moment. Your thread encouraged me to steal a taste and . . . I have to say . . . You are very right. It tastes like a cross between apple and honey . . . though I could be showing my poor sense of taste in saying such a thing . . .

Regardless . . . it's good and I plan to use it in the future in a mead or cyser.
