Aniseed Oil

ANISE SEED $7.00 5 ml
Revered by ancient civilizations, particularly in the Middle East. The Romans hailed it as an aphrodisiac! The Greek recognize its calmative influence on the digestive tract. In India the seeds are chewed to sweeten the breath. Having several uses over the past two or so thousand years, aiding in digestion as a liquor has been its primary use. It is closely related to caraway, dill and fennel.
