Nostalgia – Yuzu lapsang D12
Posted by: | Comments
I have always believed that the flavours of Yuzu and Lapsang go well together.
The citrusy, sweet, round flavor of yuzu and the light smokiness in lapsang is just the perfect match
The essence of the dessert is Yuzu spray. We take the essence of the wonderful aroma of this fruit and make a spray out of it.
As one begins to experience this course, they use the spray and allow the fragnce to permeate before tasting the dessert.
This influences the taste for the initial few bites and brings the experience to a whole new level.
The yuzu is a citrus fruit originating in East Asia. It is believed to be a hybrid of sour mandarin and Ichang papeda.
Lapsang souchong a black tea originally from the Wuyi region of the Chinese province of Fujian It is sometimes referred to as smoked tea. Lapsang is distinctive from all other types of tea because lapsang leaves are traditionally smoke-dried over pinewood fires, taking on a distinctive smoky flavour
