- The big minty note carries over to the palate, joined by some lemon balm and lemon peels, mugwort again too. It's more distinct and precise here, a good spicy kick to it too, with also a good amount of richness to it. It still leans brighter, with a pretty floral and herbaceous flavour, as opposed to the darker, more rooty style.
