Tarragon has a subtle anise, fennel-like flavor, and its leaves are slender and softer than other herbs.

Raw, it has a crisp bite, with a licorice flavor that is somewhere between anise and the effervescence of a lemon-lime soda: refreshing, cool, neutralizing.

Timothy Sharp, manager of Sparrow Coffee House in Cardiff, makes his own homemade syrup, adding spices like cloves, cardamom and star anise to the core PSL ingredients of ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg.

This red blend offers pipe tobacco and anise notes on the palate with shades of black currant.

The raki was a special liquor they made from fermented fruits like plums or mulberries with spicy additives like juniper or anise, that smelled, to me, like licorice and turpentine.
