An aura of being calm, cool and collected surrounded this dram, deeply rich and tropical with candied pineapple, piña colada cupcakes with kiwi frosting and golden sultanas. The taste was that of, ‘Ispahan’ inspired crisp macaron cakes filled with a smooth fragrant rose buttercream, tart raspberries and sweet lychee - a heavenly delight! As we returned to mother earth and added a drop of water the scent was that of toffee, mango, caramel and cocoa powder before we all relaxed with a classic cherry clafoutis and a mug of lemon and lime, ginger and thyme tea sweetened by a liberal spoonful of runny honey as a sweetener.
