Anise Seed

Anise Seed from Nelson's Tea is a cut-and-sifted spice sourced from Pimpinella anisum, a flowering plant in the Umbelliferae family (which also includes fennel, caraway, coriander, and dill). The seeds carry a soft, licorice-like sweetness that works across sweet and savory kitchens alike, from fruit pies to slow-roasted meats.

Brewed into anise seed tea, these small, aromatic seeds release a warm, gently sweet infusion with a soothing finish. The cup feels cozy and herbal, making it a lovely after-dinner sipper or a comforting addition to homemade tisane blends.
