Liquor
Description
Dried leaves: The fine, silvery buds mingle with handsome, luminous emerald green leaves and those with more mysterious shades of rosewood.
Infused leaves: A gourmet scent of black cherry precedes sweet, fresh tones of honeydew melon and cardamom flower.
Liquor: Sparkling gold, the liqueur exhales a silky fragrance of apricot and white peach. Its round texture finds balance with the lively, sweet notes of young Muscatel grape.
Cold brew:
1 - place 15g of tea in 1 liter of spring water; keep in the fridge for about 12 hours.
2 - filter out the leaves then let the liqueur come to room temperature.
3 - best served in a large balloon glass, filled up to a third.
"Cold brew", a slow infusion in cold water, results in a further exploration of the infinite aromatic palette of this grand cru. The cold allows new fragrances to express themselves in a dazzling and totally intoxicating way.
