One note of caution it does take a significant amount of time to finish. (I do not use yeast nutrients or energizers as I am brewing for a specific audience and prefer not to have modern ingredients in my mead.) That being said, I will continue to use it and be patient. Good mead is worth the wait!This yeast works. It is the single most important item in my homemade wine recipes. It does the job. Nothing to whine about!Bought some of this for my first batch of mead. Was no expiration date on the packaging, so I was a bit nervous, but it rehydrated nicely, and appears to be going well after 12 hrs.
Felt like I got took though, when I found the same product elsewhere for less than $!/pkg!! Amazon is usually a great price, but I didn't do my due diligence, and got bit for it. Live and learn.The best yeast on the market. I use it for all my white/clear wines...Apple, Sassafras, Mead, etc..Goes to work fast..stays very aggressive and can reach over 17% ABV...No other reason to use any other yeast unless you are doing reds..I use this yeast in all my fruit meads. The smoothness it produces and the large temp range it can be used in makes it my only choice. I did not like the results in a regular mead with no fruit. I do agree with other review it does take a long time to finish.

It cleanses well, and it'd pair well with lots of foods. Steaks, pastas, pork and even some desserts. It's very versatile, and complimentary to lots of foods. The ingredients list is gleefully short. Water, apple & black currant concentrates, beet sugar, carbon dioxide, natural flavors and citric acid.
This is now my favorite Kristian Regále drink. it's more nuanced and sophisticated than the pomegranate, and a bit more versatile. it's as wine-like as you can get in the sparkling world, without going for de-alcholized wine. I'm definitely adding this to my table drink list, and with how often we use Amazon to order things, a case of this will be on my Birthday and Christmas lists indefinitely.
We drank this with Spinach Procsuittio Noodle Casserole.
My favorite Kirstian Regále so far, 10 out of 10This was introduced to me by a muslim friend who cannot drink alcohol, and I have to say it is one of the best drinks I've ever had. As others point out, it's a rather sophisticated drink so if you're looking for something that could replace wine this is probably as close as you'll get (although being fizzy it's more like champagne I guess).
HOWEVER this sold on Amazon in May 2012 when I last ordered it for $19.53, now it's like DOUBLE THAT PRICE!
I wouldn't buy this for anything more than $20, so if I were you I'd either wait to find it at that price again on Amazon or look elsewhere.
Buy Kristian Regale Sparkling Beverage, Black Currant, 25.4-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 4) Now
The tiny bubbles and flavor choice makes this an above average non-alcholic beverage. Others tend to be more like soda pop.I love anything Black Currant and was delighted to find this sparkling juice. It's not too sweet and has a great taste. The bottle is really pretty too. The price can't be beat when you have it auto-shipped once a month. It comes out to less than $3 a bottle, which is cheaper than buying it in a store.... if you can even a find a store that stocks these.Want Kristian Regale Sparkling Beverage, Black Currant, 25.4-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 4) Discount?
I love black currant flavored stuff, and this is no exception. I can't have booze, due to medications, so I treat myself to sparkling drinks now and then. This is GREAT!! It has a definite black currant flavor, and not TOO sparkly... just right !! (Goldilocks said so) And, the packaging really is easy to deal withonce the tape is removed, the box is simple to "undo". No drama with unpacking :)Roland Gaufrettes

They are very crisp, but beware they are sold in cardboard boxes,
and turn stale fast after opening the box.
For the price of the cookies they should be packed in tin cans to preserve freshness.
Very disappointed because of the packaging.
The cookies are worth getting if you are willing to transfer them to a good metal can.I actually got these for my mother, as she remembered them when she lived in Malaysia. They shipped well, very few were broken, and they tasted just fine. Also, it seems like a high price but you get a massive amount of these wafers. They'll last you a long time. I wish they offered smaller amounts as it will take my mom two years to get through these and I'm not sure how long they'll be good.They serve these at Good Times with their shakes. Thank you very much for the good buy. I gave them out to family as gifts.While we were on a Norwegian Cruise Lines cruise, we tasted these wafers. We were so pleased with them that I searched for a source so that we could enjoy them at home as well.
