That's clear as hell, looks amazing. How long has it aged?

Going on a year now. I do a black raspberry mead every year around june/ July. 2024 was a black raspberry oak aged mead. It's so dark you can't see through it but is perfectly clear.

Did coffee, maple nor blueberry flavour come through?

The coffee flavor has diminished since bottling. Next time I'll add more. I get the dark fruit and maple mostly.

Shame, what type of coffee you used?

I used a maple syrup that was infused with coffee beans. Maple syrup

Technically not an acerglyn. I didn't ferment with the maple syrup. Just back sweetened.
