    A good second, ‘chai vevert’ is the clear winner

    This is also an older tasting. Price to quality is very good on this one as well. Lightly fruity and the floral notes are far lighter. The palate is lightly dry but delicious. The empty glass is really nice and I can pick up some licorice and herbal notes.

    Very inviting and pleasant nose. Baked apple and almonds come to mind. On the palate, a nice combination of spice, citrus and young wood. I like it much better than the "Vevert".

    Le Adrien est plus feutré et plus sobre en fruits! On est sur une gourmandise équilibrée! 🧡
