Notes
Complex beyond belief, aromas danced between flaked almonds, figs and raisins before prancing over pancakes doused with lemon juice, cinnamon and sugar. A warming tingle on the tongue tangoed towards sweet melon, clover honey and lime curd. There was even room for earthier notes of root ginger and fresh tobacco. Water kicked off a cha-cha-cha of vanilla sponge cake and country hedgerows dotted with rosehips. Large chunks of white chocolate then sashayed with soft caramel, ripe mango and assam tea. Nutty characters dipped in chocolate now took to the floor, perfectly in step with syrup alongside clementines and dried chamomile flowers.
