Liquor
Description
Dried leaves: The young leaves and handsome, tender silver-green buds deliver a note of rich cake generously garnished with candied fruits.
Infused leaves: Luminous jade. A mesmerising fragrance of Lily-of-the-valley covered in morning dew mingles with an aroma of candied jujube.
Liquor: The gilded robe is simply sublime. The persistent and enchanting flavours evoke fig jam with green almond undertones highlighted by a floral wave of narcissus. The invigorating and soothing freshness of lotus seed pop in the mouth, followed by a soft, gourmet note of ripened star fruit.
The secrets of a terroir of excellence.
