Review and Tasting

Sampled on 25/06/2012

Appearance:

Clear, pale algae green. Milky green louche with water.

Aroma:

Herbal pine forest aromas sit over anise, angelica and wormwood in what is best summed up as being a verdant nose.

Taste:

(reduced 4-1 with water) Pine forest and spruce needles lead a herbal anise palate with good wormwood character.

Aftertaste:

Herbal barky anise finish.
