I received a letter from the county fair board in a neighboring state, asking if I would like to be a judge in their wine competition this fall.
All fine with that.
However, there was also an "oh, by the way" in the letter, stating that the wine department included categories for honey and maple syrup, and would I mind terribly judging those as well???
Huh. This is a new one on me.
Has anyone judged honey and/or maple syrup, or had their own honey/syrup entries judged by others? I'm not sure what the criteria would be. Hmm... let's see... is it amber colored? Check. Is it sweet? Check. Was it made entirely by bees? Check.
Seems like that would pretty much cover the gamut of honey attributes.
Any advice before I accept?
