Pastis Duval is an iconic French spirit, particularly prized for its unique taste and long-standing tradition in the production of pastis. This traditional alcoholic beverage originates from France and is distinguished by its intense anise aroma.
Pastis Duval is created through a careful process of infusion and distillation, utilizing various types of herbs and spices, with star anise being predominant among them. One of the most fascinating aspects of this product is the way water is added to the concentrated liquid, causing a transformation of the color from clear to a milky opalescence, a phenomenon known as "louche."
The tasting experience of Pastis Duval is refreshing and complex. Upon tasting, vibrant anise notes are presented, accompanied by nuances of Mediterranean herbs and a slight sweet aftertaste. Its alcohol content is around 45%, making it ideal to be served diluted with cold water, a ratio that usually varies from 1:5 to 1:7.
Pastis Duval is perfect as an aperitif, capable of stimulating the appetite before a meal. It is also traditionally paired with seafood dishes, particularly oysters and clams, which enhance its aromatic properties without overwhelming them.
Serving it in a tall glass with ice and an adequate proportion of water allows one to fully enjoy its organoleptic properties and transform a simple moment of consumption into an authentic sensory experience, ensuring a traditional experience that reflects the French culinary heritage.
