Being from Marseille, I just adore pastis.
Pastis is the epitome of sophisticated French culture. For those who are not au fait with sophisticated French culture and prefer the unsophisticated nonsense of Anglo-Saxon culture in its various forms across the world, Pastis is an aniseed liqueur very similar to Pernod. I have no less of a taste for Pernod, though I am saddened by how the TV show Little Britain has tried to cheapen it by showing that the character Vicky Pollard is fond of the drink. Unsophisticated Anglo-Saxon bumpkins don't know the first thing about how to do aniseed liqueur properly. We sophisticated French women like to sip it on the shores of Mediterranean cities and towns in hot weather.
Unsophisticated bumpkins in Anglo-Saxon nations tend to dislike its bitter flavours, but that is characteristic of how unsophisticated they are. Real epicures like bitter flavours in their food and don't like the overly sweet lack of sophistication that characterises the Anglo-Saxon world.
