Review and Tasting

Sampled on 17/04/2012

Appearance:

Clear, deep mauve.

Aroma:

Candied violet that lacks the floral aromas found in other crèmes de violette, with faint notes we found reminiscent of washing-up detergent.

Taste:

Clean, violet flavour, with slight boiled sweet note, lacks intense floral flavours.

Aftertaste:

A gradual fading of the flavours found on the palate.
