AROMA
Baked apples and raisins, chocolate-covered nuts, maple syrup and toasted waffles with salted pecans as a side dish.
TASTE
Apple with peanut crunch and milk chocolate. A sweet and salty mix like a leavened dough and a wilt of pavement, fresh rain and cherry blossoms
"We really looked for the quintessential New York flavors - sweet candy, waffles, peanut brittle, chocolate and pecans. The city's thriving street food scene was a big source of inspiration."
