A great example of a sweet and gentle aroma with fruity scent.
Appearance
Dry leaf: Intricate, short and long twists of green-black and brown-black leaf
Infusion: Earthy and close-textured, with unfolded fleshy, stubby leaf
Colour of the infusion: Deep maple-russet liquor
Aroma
Sweet, close, warm and gentle, with a nourishingly soupy style.
Soft and teasing, elegant and sweet: blossoms on a summer breeze, with a faint hint of rootiness behind.
Taste
Full, firm and satisfying, with ample earthy, tree-bark richness. Fortifying, with some grippiness in the finish, lifted by a little unexpected grapefruit-citrus perfume.
