Suktinis Mead (1L, 50%)

Suktinis Mead is a 50% ABV Lithuanian honey-based liqueur from Lietuviškas Midus in Stakliškės. It blends natural bee honey with 14 botanicals and berry juices, including cloves, poplar buds, acorns, juniper berries, bilberry, black currant and raspberry juices. The recipe was created in 1963 by A. Sinkevičius and the spirit matures for 18 to 20 months. The nose opens with pronounced honey, followed by a layered floral bouquet, subtle herbal notes and a gentle berry-fruit undertone. The palate is sweet and lush with rich honey, warming spice from cloves and juniper, and tangy berry depth. The finish is long and warming, with a slightly bitter herbal edge and lingering honey and juniper.
