Black Magic from Shakal Meadery is a bold and unconventional interpretation of mead, crafted from wild honey and cipó uva honey with the addition of coffee and candy sugar. With 15% ABV, it is aged in bourbon barrels, which impart layers of oak, vanilla, and warm tones that blend seamlessly with the primary aromas.

On the nose, coffee is immediately present, ranging from freshly roasted notes to deeper undertones, while hints of cherry and red berries emerge in the background. The palate reveals a balance between the rich sweetness of honey and the pronounced bitterness and acidity of coffee, creating a sense of depth and seriousness.

Its texture is full, almost liqueur-like, yet remains rounded and drinkable, with a long finish where coffee and fruit intertwine. This release has been recognized and praised by enthusiasts as one of the most distinctive offerings from Shakal.
