Aniseed (Pimpinella anisum) is a classic digestive and respiratory herb known for its liquorice-like aroma and gentle soothing action. Traditionally used for indigestion, bloating, coughs, and women’s health, it’s enjoyed in teas, tinctures, and confections across many cultures. Naturally sweet and warming, it’s also loved in culinary, craft, and pet use.

  • Traditionally used to relieve indigestion, gas, and bloating after meals
  • Expectorant and antispasmodic — helpful for dry coughs and mild bronchial congestion
  • May support hormone balance and lactation in postpartum women
  • Calms the nervous system and mildly uplifts mood
  • Sweet and soothing — blends well with fennel, chamomile, lemon balm, and mint

Tea: Steep 1–2 tsp crushed seed in hot water for 5–10 minutes. Drink after meals to support digestion or before bed to relax. Enjoy warm or cooled.

Blends: Combine with fennel, caraway, ginger, or peppermint in digestive teas, or with chamomile and lemon balm for calming blends.

Culinary: Use in baking (breads, cookies), soups, or as a spice for chutneys, meat dishes, and liqueurs. Classic in biscotti and sambuca.

Topical: Use infusion as a skin rinse or compress. Mildly antiseptic and skin-softening.

Pets: Dogs may be drawn to anise — use sparingly in treats or scent games. Avoid use in cats. Consult a vet before using in animals.

Aniseed is a natural favourite for those who love sweet teas and traditional remedies. Customers report using it to ease bloating, add flavour to nursing or chai blends, and uplift their mood after meals. It’s also used in calming dog toys, heritage baking, and ceremonial sleep sachets. For a gentle digestive tonic, try anise with fennel and chamomile or add to infused water as a daily ritual.

Not for use in large doses during pregnancy or with hormone-sensitive conditions. May interact with medications — use moderate amounts unless guided. Store airtight for best flavour and aroma.
