High quality Star Anise suitable for cocktail garnishing.
Star anise is the seed pod from the fruit of the Illicium verum plant, an evergreen shrub native to Southwest China. The star anise pod has an average of eight points, each containing a single pea-sized seed. Both the seeds and the pod are used in cooking and contain the sweet, strong anise flavor.
It is used to flavor liqueurs, such as absinthe, sambuca, and pastis. Star anise has a very strong, distinct flavor that is warm, sweet, and spicy, similar to licorice, fennel seed, clove, and anise seed (which comes from a different plant).
It is used to flavour gin, as well as being used as a garnish in G&T.
