Schramm’s Black Agnes Black Currant Mead

At 14% ABV, Schramm’s Black Agnes is a Michigan mead built around the rich, distinctive character of black currant. Tart acidity keeps the fruit lively, while honeyed sweetness softens its sharper side. The result sits comfortably between bright fruit and rounded sweetness without losing the currant at its center.

Floral undertones bring a lighter accent, followed by an earthy note that gives the mead extra depth. It is a helpful choice for drinkers who enjoy fruit-forward mead but prefer some acidity to balance the sweetness. The profile remains direct and easy to understand: dark fruit, honey, lift, and a grounded finish. Offered in a 750 mL size, it provides a clear introduction to the meeting point between mead’s honeyed character and black currant’s natural tartness.
