The Aromatic Profile of Our Concentrates to Dilute

Ginger: Power & Warmth

A powerful recipe thanks to "aged" ginger from Madagascar, highlighted by the invigorating and smoky heat of Langue d’Oiseau chili. Softened by a verbena infusion and enhanced by a hint of Sicilian lime juice, this composition offers a unique intensity.

The Yuzu: Bitterness & Freshness

A fresh bitterness of a high-altitude yuzu from Japan, combined with infusions of gentian and bergamot. Completed with Sicilian lemon juice, this recipe offers a harmonious and refined freshness.

Passion Fruit: Tangy & Exotic

An intense and exotic creation, with yellow passion fruit "maracuja", spicy and woody black pepper from Madagascar, and a touch of Sicilian lime to bring freshness and balance.
