Yup, that's a no age one all righty, says "Short meads must be chilled until consumed.", also the statement of "Use kits within six months." intrigues me. Not sure if that is referring to their herbs & spices going off or the mead, either way I'd be sure that you have that all nice & drunk within a short time after it's ready.
Unless you have been absolutely scrupulous in your cleaning & sanitizing, like a brewery or surgical room, you cannot be sure that your mead will be able to age properly. The absolute cheap & easy method for bottling would go something like this: Get used soda pop bottles & clean them with HOT, but not boiling, water, lids too. Just be sure they are not scuzzy with crud, only use clean bottles or you'll run into problems. This step could be dangerous, just be sure to stay away from flames, or using flames for an hour or so after you are done. Here's why, I usually use vodka as a sterilizing fluid, regular old 80 proof, 40%, cheapo vodka. I fill the bottles a bit, shake 8-10 times, drain into a bowl, then fill then next with the bowls contents, shake, drain, fill, drain, repeat... make sue you do the bottle tops as well... letting them all drain for a couple of minutes... sterilize a funnel, inside & out... carefully pour your mead into the bottles... filling to within 1 to 1 1/2 inches from the top... screw the top on. Be sure not to get the gunky stuff at the bottom, those are called the gross lees. That should get you six months without fear of bacterial contamination, that would turn a glass bottle into what is known as a "Bottle Bomb", these the plastic will get hard & you can carefully dispose of it before a problem occurs, also keeping it in the refrigerator will go a long way to preserving it better. Just like the name says it goes BANG, with lots of glass shards flying all over, possibly setting off more bottles next to it...
Next I'd read up on the procedures in the NewBee Guide, almost everyone here has read that or has equivalent knowledge; that way there is a common point of reference for you & the rest of us to discuss all things mead. Second keep asking questions, I tell people that the only stupid questions are the ones that you don't ask.
What kind of equipment do you have?? If you want to make some more advanced types of meads you will need some basic equipment to do it with: Hydrometer & test jar, airlock & rubber stopper that has a hole in it, racking cane & tubing, bottling wand, crown caps & bottle capper, some Campden tablets (K-Meta or Potassium Metabisulfite), a small amount of One Step...... Er, I think that's about the minimum.... All of that can be had for ~$30 or so on Amazon, or they even have starter sets that you can buy with all of it cheaper than buying it separately. I don't really know about those so will have to ask other members what that have experienced. Not just Amazon has equipment, but it's usually the easiest to access & sometimes cheapest if you include shipping costs...
