Ricard Pastis de Marseille

A light, natural, refreshing beverage, Ricard is both unique and multi-faceted. What makes it unique is the timeless quality of the recipe, which has been kept secret since it was formulated by Paul Ricard in 1932. And it is multi-faceted because of the variety of natural ingredients it contains: a subtle blend of star anise from China, licorice from the Mediterranean, and aromatic herbs from Provence. Those ingredients, which Ricard specialists collect from the furthest frontiers of the Orient, underscore the care that goes into producing Ricard and guarantee the quality of its taste. Next comes the ritual moment when a splash of water gives a glass of Ricard its first frisson of freshness, followed by the first sip in which it reveals the infinite wealth and generosity of its flavours.
