Taybes Bochet from G3B Meadery & Blendery is a bochet-style mead, where honey is first caramelized to achieve a deeper and warmer aromatic base. In this creation, the caramelized honey is blended with reduced tayberry juice, a hybrid of blackberry and raspberry, which contributes a complex fruit acidity and refreshing character.
After fermentation, the mead is enriched with orange peel, cinnamon sticks, and vanilla, adding layers of spice and aromatic warmth. The overall structure is rich and multi-layered, with a pronounced balance of caramel and fruit notes, leading to a long and warming finish.
With an alcohol content of 14.8%, it belongs to the category of strong meads that resemble dessert wines, while its dark color and dense profile highlight the distinctive bochet style.
