Why These Flavors Work

Fig leaf has a green, herby flavor with some fig notes. The shortbread has background Maillard and butter flavors that do not overpower the fig leaf. The high flavor note will also come from the jasmine and the chocolate, which are used in a balanced proportion so as to not overwhelm the fig leaf.
