Ricard is a French brand of pastis, a type of anise-flavored spirit that is especially popular in the south of France. The brand was founded in 1932 by Paul Ricard, who is credited with the invention of this particular style of pastis. His formulation was unique at the time for its flavor derived from a blend of herbs and spices, with star anise being particularly prominent.
Ricard Pastis, a renowned anise-flavored spirit from Marseille, is celebrated for its distinctive taste and traditional production methods.
