Having tasted both White Star and Brut Imperial, I can attest to the differences between the two. White Star had a slightly sweeter and fruitier flavor profile, with notes of ripe apples and pears. It had a pleasant, creamy texture that appealed to those who preferred a touch of sweetness in their champagne. On the other hand, Brut Imperial presented a drier and crisper taste, with more pronounced citrus and mineral notes. It had a lively effervescence and a clean, refreshing finish. The replacement of White Star with Brut Imperial reflects a broader industry trend towards drier champagnes that offer a more modern and sophisticated drinking experience.
