Excellent, thanks Cab, I'll buy the set one then, I think, less likely for me to spill it

I'm buying it from Suma this time, still not got off my rear and found a local supplier, so I am thinking of buying a big tub...one they do is Zambian but it is organic and fair trade, does that cancel me out or not?

Zambian... I think I know the one. Really dark with a bit of spiel about honey badgers on the tub? If it is that one, it makes a dark, malty, almost slightly beery mead. Very pleasant; make it a trifle sweet, but be prepared for it to take an age to clear. All three of the batches I've made with that one took forever.

That sounds like it - https://www.tropicalforest.com

(PS badgers always make me laugh. The idea of a spiel about badgers... )

Now your honey badger is quite a different prospect to your basic european badger... And yes, that's the one

Makes an interesting mead, but perhaps not a 'classic' mead. Worth making.
