Oranges, cinnamon sticks and (IwishIhadreadHBTbeforestarting) a boatload of cloves. After reading the mead forum, I might have over-spiced it a bit.

Yep, that's a lot of cloves.

The advice from the local FLHBS is to make another batch of mead and mix it with the uber-clove mead.

Nikon D70. I need to upgrade, but economic reality is keeping me from upgrading.

I just bottling this and sampled some.

I no longer like cloves. Maybe this will mellow a bit with age.
