Pastiche

Distillerie du Viaduc

Pastiche is anything but an imitation. With this creation, Distillerie du Viaduc asserts an artisanal and botanical vision of pastis, far from industrial versions saturated with sugar and artificial flavors. This organic aniseed spirit is crafted with purity in mind, slowly macerating whole plants in neutral alcohol, following a gentle and controlled process that reveals the natural complexity of the botanicals.

Among the ingredients, all organically grown: green anise seeds, fennel, licorice, dill, and lemon thyme. Maceration lasts one month, followed by progressive dilutions with no added sugar, coloring, or additives. It is this slow reduction that gives Pastiche its smooth texture and balanced palate.

The nose opens with a clear aniseed base, supported by fennel and a fresh touch of lemon thyme. On the palate, the attack is clean, herbaceous, structured by a beautiful presence of licorice and the aniseed elegance of dill. The finish is long, persistent, and evokes natural licorice candies, without any heaviness.

This new generation pastis can be enjoyed neat or slightly diluted, depending on the desired intensity. It is designed for lovers of bitters, botanicals, and freshness. More than just an aperitif, Pastiche is a vibrant infusion of the Mediterranean garden in a bottle, at once intense, dry, and digestible.
