Nose

Reminds me of a passanda curry – ground almonds, cinnamon, cardamom and saffron with loose-leaf black tea.

Palate

Grainy texture – representing the tannins of that black tea. Fresh, sappy pine shavings, lemon juice and the surprise of biting into a lemon pip. Cardamom and cinnamon in the background.

Finish

Almond character is there, baked in a cake served with Ceylon tea.

Comment

Smells nothing like a curry, but all the elements of the passanda are there. Trust me!
