Tasting note

Ricard is produced by blending the different essences of anise, the liquid licorice extract and the aromatic plants in carefully measured proportions in order to obtain a high-quality product of world-wide fame.

This iconic liqueur was first made in 1932 by 23-year old entrepreneur Paul Ricard from star anise, green anise, licorice and Provençal herbs. Anise-flavoured, it’s slightly bitter, smooth and mellow. Traditionally, pastis is mixed with water which turns the transparent, yellow liquid milky.
