Pastis Ricard
One of the most famous anise-flavored spirits in the world, embodying the essence of Provence in every sip. First crafted in 1932 by Paul Ricard, this legendary French aperitif has remained a favorite for those who appreciate the traditional flavors of pastis. With its distinctive golden hue and complex botanical profile, Ricard is a true symbol of French drinking culture.
The rich aroma of anise is immediately present upon opening the bottle, complemented by subtle hints of licorice, star anise, and a delicate mix of Provencal herbs. When mixed with water, pastis turns milky and opalescent, showcasing the signature “louche” effect of authentic pastis.
Traditionally served as a long, refreshing drink, Pastis Ricard is best enjoyed with cold water, enhancing and mellowing its flavors. Perfect for warm afternoons, leisurely apéritifs, or pairing with Mediterranean dishes like olives, seafood, and charcuterie.
With its timeless appeal, Pastis Ricard continues to be a staple in French cafés and homes worldwide. Pastis Ricard brings a true taste of southern France to any gathering.
