I also have enough 2nd grade honey that I can start some mead. We used to make it from supermarket honey in El Salvador, and are looking forward to giving it a red-hot-go from our own honey. The 2nd grade honey came from our top-bar hive which has too much uncapped nectar mixed with the good honey to sell but is perfect for mead. It's a very strongly flavoured honey, so should provide an interesting brew.
I have a Llangstroth hive alongside the top-bar so should get some nice strong honey to sell from it when I rob the hive next.
The top-bar hive.
We have so many blackberries on our block, I think I'll make a 25 litre batch of blackberry wine when the berries are ripe.
