Thanks guys. I should be able to get this started tomorrow. The local honey place only had blackberry honey which sounded good to me. I was thinking about doing a peach melomel but given the honey is blackberry I bought a can of blackberry squeezins (blackberry puree made for winemakers).
I think blackberry is a good choice Steve, I find berry melomels pretty forgiving and I like how they look. They also naturally have tannins and provide some acidity.
Btw varietal honey doesn't really taste like the fruit. Blackberry honey just means that the bees foraged mainly on blackberry blossoms. That will show up in floral notes etc., not as blackberry flavor. That being said it doesn't mean there won't be a nice synergy there.
Peach melomel is harder to pull off. We have a very prolific peach tree and are able to make it with a ton of peaches that are super ripe and fresh. It really takes a lot of peaches and some acidity in the form of other fruits or acid additions to bring out the flavor.
