Making a Rare Cloudberry Mead! (The Ultimate Nordic Melomel)

Bringing a true taste of the wild into the mead room today. In this video, I’m taking a traditional, naturally fermented mead base and introducing it to a harvest of wild cloudberries during secondary fermentation. Dropping these unique berries into secondary allows those delicate, tart, and complex alpine flavors to infuse perfectly into the alcohol without being lost to a aggressive primary ferment. This batch is all about experimenting with wild ingredients and seeing how the honey profile integrates with the distinct, woody tartness of the "Arctic Gold." Drop a comment below if you’ve ever experimented with cloudberries, or what wild ingredients you're throwing into your carboys right now! 🌿 Join the journey: Subscribe to follow along with this batch and more wild fermentation projects. www.colsosbrewery.se #mead #melomel #wildfermentation #cloudberry #cloudberrymead #fruitinsecondary #meadmaking #homebrewing #naturalfermentation #honeywine
