Ouzo is the most popular and traditional distilled alcoholic beverage in Greece and one of the most famous ones worldwide. It is an aniseed-flavored spirit that is being produced mainly from aniseed plants, fennel and star anise. It has a distinct flavor that is directly linked to anethole that we get by extracting it from the aniseed plants. Ouzo can only be made in Greece and it always has high alcohol volume.
