Pips Meadery — Blue Haze

Technical Details

Tasting Profile

Blue Haze is a blueberry melomel crafted with toasted hazelnuts, delivering a deeply aromatic and layered drinking experience. Deep purple in color, it opens with a pronounced bouquet of ripe blueberries and roasted hazelnut. The mouthfeel is medium to full-bodied, arriving initially dry before yielding to waves of sweet blueberry fruit and warm, nutty richness. A seamless interplay between fruit and nut builds with each sip, finishing with a lingering, slightly honeyed warmth characteristic of a well-fermented melomel.

Food Pairing

A natural companion to a charcuterie board featuring aged manchego and candied walnuts, where the hazelnut notes find harmony. Also outstanding alongside a dark chocolate hazelnut tart or a blueberry clafoutis, where the fruit-forward character of the mead amplifies the dessert’s richness.
