Avaliação e degustação

Experimentado em 03/12/2012

Aparência:

Translucent but with off-putting small and medium snow storm-like white particles in suspension.

Aroma:

Pungent bergamont, kaffir lime, lime zest, lemon verbena and thyme.

Sabor:

Astringent spruce needles and pine sap with lime zest and tea tannin wormwood-like bitterness.

Aftertaste:

Lingering tannic bergamot and citrus bitterness. Sampled neat or in a Martini then the tea tannins are too dominant but mix with tonic water and you’ll find yourself with an Earl Grey flavoured G&T.
