Thank you! I have next to nil artistic ability, so I actually really surprised myself by managing to make something I actually liked with these labels.

Yeah, I don’t know if that tracks. Wingspan has sold more than 1.3 million copies (as of September 2021) which is way way way more than the average board game sells.
I’d far more believe that they couldn’t keep up with production than they were intentionally limiting supply.
Ooo, fantastic. I’ve been doing sugar extractions of lemon zest for a mead recently, and we tried drying and blitzing the zests after filtering.
For us the powder was nice (partly because it got a bit candied during the process) but fairly mild in taste. I think it could still absolutely be fun to use to sprinkle on desserts of drinks, for visuals if nothing else.
Having recently tried the filtering thing, it’s still a roll of the dice unless you’re using the much more expensive professional grade filters.
It does get your mead clear as hell though, and removes a ton of off flavors.
I’m no expert, been doing it as a hobby for about five years now, but from my own experience I’ll make a few notes:
The bochet and berry meads aren’t doing anything super out of the ordinary (well, out of the ordinary if you’re already caramelizing your honey) but the Strawberry Lemonade one is weird enough that I keep meaning to do a full write up about it.
Just gotta actually get around to setting up a blog or website or something so I can host it someplace useful.
