Pasieka Półtorak Gronowy

pours a clear caramel with a purpleish tinge - it starts cloudy and then clears up. Aroma is unusual, with lots of dark red grape juice, almost in a medicinal way, but it works pretty well - the honey is only mildly detectable. Flavour is almost like cough syrup, beige dominated by the grape juice. There’s a fair degree of acidity and even some tannins, almost resembling a red wine. The honey is in the background, contributing sweetness without being very prominent in actual character. This is too close to cough syrup for me, so I don’t really appreciate it all that much.
