Liquor
Description
Dried leaves : The tender buds and their young leaves are imbued with a creamy note of lychee honey and candied tamarind.
Infused leaves : Luminous imperial green. A perfume of wild orchid under the morning dew marries a sweet note of fresh walnut.
Liquor : Sparkling reflections of amber. A fruity-flowery fragrance of apricot introduces a silky, creamy sensation of vanilla ganache. The gourmet cup is aroused by a zesty burst of bergamot while the finale is punctuated by a persistent brume of vetiver.
Joie de vivre in Darjeeling.
