Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

this one's much more on tropical fruits, tangerines, mangos, passion fruits, guavas, all-vitamin fruit juice… No more lavender here, as if the distillation regime had been completely different. So much closer to the 1993 than to the other 1988 as far as the nose is concerned. With water: tropical bonbons, foam bananas, litchi buttercream with meringue, Zacapa (err..) …

restaurant Palate

yeah, the lavender is back on the palate, the violets, the pink pepper, the soapiness… And it's pretty huge. I understand some friends love this style, which is just great. Always tangerines… With water: a wee dustiness, otherwise hand cream and indeed, Parma Violets

timer Finish

medium, on the same notes
