Kasia Sobiesiak has me wanting to drink Pastis

Written By Campbell Mattinson

Cut straight to the chase: Kasia’s article on Pastis is here.

This time last year I was swanning around Greece and drinking Ouzo every day. I’m partial to anise. I don’t or didn't however know much about Pastis, which is both anise based and one of – if not the – most popular spirits in France. The Pernod Ricard empire was founded on it. Kasia has written an article on Pastis which tells you all you need to know about Pastis but just as importantly, or perhaps even more, are her pastis recommendations at the bottom of the article. Kasia not only knows her pastis, but she describes and reviews it beautifully. She’s got me heading to the shops.

He’s the only Australian to have won the Australian Wine Communicator of the Year Award more than once. He’s a past winner of a Louis Roederer International Wine Media Award, and is the author of the award-winning book The Wine Hunter. He’s not afraid to put a score beside a wine. But what he’d rather do, is tell you the wine’s story.
