Ok, so 6 months ago I bottled my first batch of mead. Admittedly, its still young, but I cracked one open. Color is perfect. A nice golden color and absolutely clear. No cloudiness or anything.
Taste, on the other hand... tastes like an olive. Seriously. Like I'm eating a handful of green olives. It doesn't taste vinegary, per se... it doesn't taste really sour or acidic... just tastes like an olive. This is annoying because I'd rather not sit on this for the next couple of years if all its going to be good for is cooking. I could use that right now.
Any thoughts?
