Review and Tasting
Sampled on 02/02/2015
Appearance |
Clear pale green, louches when water is added. |
Aroma |
Fennel, coriander and slight liquorice with aniseed. With water: subtle anise sits above notes of fennel and coriander. Clean and fresh. |
Taste |
With water: Fresh and rounded with anise backed by angelica, coriander, fennel, liquorice and mint. |
Aftertaste |
Long, well rounded finish. |
Overall |
This ‘Supérieure’ version launched in 2013 is more delicate and complex with far more subtle aniseed and rooty notes than the original La Fée Parisienne. |
