Antelope Kinkan Giou (500ml) 金柑祇王 クラフトミード発泡酒

$55.90

Kinkan (kumquat),a japanese citrus, from Matsukawa Farm in Wakayama are steeped in the base mead, Giou, during its extended & slow fermentation. 

The distinctive citrus notes & slight bitterness from the peels of the kinkan meld gracefully with the primary aromas of honeyed caramel. 

Expect, honey-pickled kinkan, dried figs, and earl grey on entry, ending off, semi-dry on the finish.

For added structure, the mead is aged in wine barrels for a month, taking on an added dimension akin to orange wines.

ANTELOPE Meaderyカモシカ

ANTELOPE is Japan's first craft mead house. Leveraging on years of study in brewing, they've taken the ancient tradition of honey wine, mead, and expressed it in their very own unique way. ANTELOPE expands on mead’s flavour profile not only by using honey but also incorporating fruits, spices, and varying fermentation methods, resulting in mead that isn't just sweet; it's a "contemporary" mead.
