Prince Pastis de Marseille

Product Type: Liqueur 

Size: 750mL

Description: Pastis is a traditional and popular liqueur in the south of France, particularly in Marseille, Provence, and the Riviera. It is often enjoyed in small cafes as a social drink. Prince Pastis is a particularly smooth and full-flavored variety, with a refreshing edge that makes it especially enjoyable during the summer months. The flavor of pastis comes from a combination of licorice and star anise, both of which are also key ingredients in absinthe, the once-controversial spirit that originated in Paris in the 1890s. Anise liqueurs, including pastis, are especially popular in France and the Mediterranean region. Pastis has a clear, yellow-brown color that turns white or gray when mixed with water. In addition to being a popular drink, it can also be used as a flavorful ingredient in a variety of culinary dishes, from pastries to marinades.
