Pernod Pastis Anise Liqueur is made from distillates of star anise and fennel, married with distillates of 14 herbs including camomile, coriander and veronica. Pernod has a low liquorice content, which sets it apart from pastises like Ricard and Pastis 51 which have a pronounced liquorice flavour.

The story of Pernod starts in 1789 when Dr Pierre Ordinaire, a retired French physician living in Switzerland blended alcohol with 15 herbs including wormwood oil to create an elixir, which he called absinthe.

He prescribed his pain relieving & special reviving ‘absinthe elixir’ in Switzerland. Ten years later, Major Dubied bought the formula and set up a absinthe factory in Couvet, Switzerland with son-in-law, Henri-Louis Pernod.

In 1805, Henri-Louis Pernod established the Pernod Fils company in Pontarlier, France to produce his absinthe named after himself.

Pernod Pastis Anise Liqueur is a versatile, anise-flavored spirit that has been used in cocktails and cuisine for more than 200 years. This premium liqueur is imported from France and its natural flavor is derived from a distilled blend of aromatic herbs.

Pernod Anise Liqueur, often just called Pernod, is a liqueur made with star anise and fennel along with other herbs. It was created in 1920 without wormwood after absinthe was banned in 1915.

As is common with anise liqueurs, this will become opaque with the addition of water. Please note: Pernod Absinthe is sold today and is a separate product from this anise liqueur.
