Wasabi Cocktail Tasting Notes
Aroma – “Butter, melted butter, melting butter, with creamy ginger and yellow fruits on the aroma.”
Flavour – “Sweet and dangerous, a smoothing touch of ginger, butter and yellow fruits initially, then the wasabi from the rim comes into play, livening up the palate with some heat and spicing up the ginger.”
