Wife brought home 6 lbs. of Avocado honey from a recent trip to San Diego. I asked for it so I got it. I'm interested in making maybe 3 gallons of a BOMM mead or maybe a pomegranate BOMM melomel. But I'm wondering about if anyone has used Avocado honey straight up in a mead. The Mead Newbee Guide on Gotmead says the following about Avocado Honey - Dark and rich and full-bodied, and there is definitely a "family resemblance" to the avocado fruit! A very sensuous honey.
I'm thinking like a 12% ABV mead. Willing to use a portion of it straight up on a 1 gallon batch of a BOMM Avocado Honey mead to see what it tastes like. Yes I know, taste the honey and if you like the taste make mead! But I still like to hear from the forum on this one. Avocado Honey as a varietal. What's the verdict? Anyone have experience with this honey to share? Thanks to all.
