Sample new treats (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

taster

'sample' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'new treats' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'treats' anagrammed gives 'TASTER'.

(Other definitions for taster that I've seen before include "person in charge of testing" , "Sample intended to stimulate interest" , "Winery worker" , "Art set (anag.)" , "A sample to try" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
