Nose Richly herbal, with excited notes of star anise sitting beneath simmering spiced notes of cardamom and pepper.
Palate Decidedly green (and not just from the historical connection between Pastis liqueurs and Absinthe) with fresh, roughly chopped herbs, warming spices and, of course, the distinctive notes of wormwood.
Finish Lasting spicy notes.
Overall Quite complex, as you would expect from a liqueur with such an expansive recipe, but it's well balanced and enjoyable.
