Those of you in the UK may be puzzled by the timing of my question, but the DT Cryptic Crossword is published here in Canada about four months after it appears in the UK.

I would love to have an explanation for this clue from DT 25813 (2008-12-31 publication date in the UK)

11ac Vigorous ambassador of aesthetic tastes (6) [Answer is HEARTY]

I find it frustrating when I can't figure out the wordplay even when I know I have the correct solution.

Thank you, dxhound2003

I had figured out most of the wordplay but I was missing the His/Her Excellency part. Thanks again.
