SPIRIT NOTES
A frolicking, fruity, fun aroma at the bakery greeted the Panel - apple turnover, pineapple upside-down cake, strawberry fondant chocolate cupcakes and raspberry croissants. On the palate neat, a green apple zingy-ness combined with a blast of cinnamon and ginger at first, before sweet raspberry and vanilla coulis was drizzled over a peach cobbler or meringue. After the addition of water, the freshness of apple-mint salad with a lime vinaigrette emerged while to taste, still a fun dram with plenty of spice but now beautifully balanced by the additional flavours of spearmint, coconut macaroons, orange sherbet and a milky vanilla chai tea.
