I'm so glad the fermentation succeeded the sample tastes like apple cider with a sour kiss. The smell is extremely sweet. The alcohol kicks ๐Ÿค™

I used the traditional honey mead ratios and added dried dates with yeast. Proper cleaning is the most important part.

Looks like extremely short fermentation in mead, dates should accelerate and improve sedimentation, just how fast was it?
