But just how MUCH of one when it comes to bulk aging mead???
I've done some meads and thought they were o.k. but i never personally have had the patience to let it age a year before drinking it.Longest i've held out was probably 3 months after bottling.
Soooooooo,
If anyone here would please enlighten me as to just how much of a difference does the extra 9 months really have on a basic mead.(honey+water+yeast+yeast nutrient+nothing else)
Normally i am a beer drinker and really cant claim to be a huge fan of traditional wines but i did think the mead was allright at 3 months but felt it was far outshined by a hard cider of comparable age.
So is it really a `mind blowing` difference with a full year of aging or is it just ` a little bit better`????????
Thank you all for your input.
