Relatives of mine are amatuer bee-keepers (in the middle of suburbia) and have supplied me with honey for my first batch of mead. They gave me more than I need for one batch, so I decided to buy a little extra honey and make two.
I think I'll make a dry, sparkling mead with Lalvin EC-1118 champagne yeast which I plan on aging over some oak, and a sweeter melomel which I plan on racking onto some sour cherries which I picked in June and which are currently in my freezer.
What would be a good yeast to yeild a medium sweet mead (for the melomel)?
