Flavour Analysis

Tartare sauce begins with a vivid impression of zesty aroma, before vinegar, oleic acid and onion emerge underneath. A brine note brings a salty character, with a sulphur note setting intense aroma alongside it, and cucumber and cut grass notes give the profile a rounded, lingering character.
