Great for higher strength abv and keeps fruit flavours
I normally use the lalvin 118 but decided to give this a try after reading about it helping retain more flavour and gain higher abv. It's easy to use. If you add to a starter, make sure temp is 30-35C. The label says to make it a touch warmer but i found it was a bad start. Maybe too warm. It is picky about nutrients too. So make sure you do add yeast nutrients to your batch and will take off after 24 hours. I used this for a batch of Mead SG indicted a potential abv of 12% and it fermented completely to a sg of 0. Much faster and had more flavour than the usual 118 i ised before. It won't be to everyones preference. But well worth atry. If you aren't using it anytime soon store the sachets in the fridge to keep the yeast good. Good quality and value. Recommended.thank you for reading my review. I hope you found it useful

Very good quality wine yeast.
This yeast is brilliant. Both of my country wines plum and blackberry are fermenting well. The best wine yeast I have ever used.

Best high strength yeast
K1-V1116 is one of the best high strength yeasts but also suitable for actually making things that taste nice unlike champagne yeast or turbo yeast £1 per pack is the best ive found so far

Easy to use and good if you only did small quantities of wine
Seems to work as it says but I will tell you in 6 weeks when my wine is finished. Ease to use.

Utilisee pour de l'hydromel, elle a remarquablement bien travaillé même sans ajout de nutriments, la fermentation est mineral et le nez final est fidèle a ce qu'on en attend, bien moins forte que l'ec1118
