Pernod
A French anise-flavored spirit (pastis) with strong licorice character that clouds white (louches) when diluted with water. Pernod is similar to Ricard and used as a lighter absinthe substitute in classic cocktails like the Corpse Reviver No. 2, where a rinse adds anise aroma without dominating the drink.
Flavor Profile
Intense anise nose with star anise, licorice root, and herbal warmth. Palate is boldly anise-forward with fennel, mint, and mild sweetness. Long, warming finish with persistent licorice depth.
