Tasting Panel Notes
Tangy lime marmalade trickled over strawberry tarts while an oily layer of marzipan melted into liquorice-laden throat lozenges. A rush of cool peppermint, Moroccan mint tea and tea tree oil liberated our airways, ready for the fragrant spice of fenugreek dusted over candied walnuts. A dash of water unshackled the sweet aromas of hazelnut liqueur, pear drops and watermelon, before deeper notes began to gather, with orange-scented wax polish and chocolate cake. Fresh waves of menthol freed the palate, making way for buttered toast covered with cocoa powder, and joined by a handful of tangerines carried in a soft chamois leather.
