For these requiring a short overview: Pastis is an anise-flavored liqueur often served as an aperitif and served with chilly water. Pastis Henri Bardouin arrives from Distilleries et Domaines de Provence and incorporates a secret proprietary mix of 65 herbs and spices. It isn’t an absinthe however could possibly be thought-about shut kin.

The label suggests serving in a ratio of 4 ounces of water to 1 and a half ounces of pastis, adjusted accordingly to your private choice. For the sake of this evaluation, I adopted the label’s directions (though I might tweak it a bit to have much less water).

A powerful present of aniseed runs all through from the preliminary strategy to the end, however there’s additionally a really inviting aroma of tarragon, black licorice, and a faint hint of mint on the nostril. There’s a really clear, balanced palate as one would count on with an aperitif, with a great deal of lemon, licorice, and faint traces of wormwood and summer season herbs all through. There’s additionally an extended, potent end which travels into savory territory. The licorice/aniseed combo continues to be there on the again finish, however because it diminishes there are traces of lemon and black pepper which maintain issues attention-grabbing. Fairly the deal with to have fun summer season’s ending.

90 proof.
