A box that smells of the south, like a tribute to the art of living in the sun!
Pastis 12/12
If Marseille is recognized as the cradle of Pastis, Pastis 12/12 has enough to steal the show from the neighbors!
70 years ago, the same year as Ricard and Pastis 51, Saint-Tropez launched its first Pastis, Mont Peculet. Imagined by native Tropezians, Pastis 12/12 wants to bring this local tradition back to life , while bottling the essence of what makes the beauty of one of the most famous villages in France!
Combining tradition and modernity, the 12/12 of Saint-Tropez is a popular but chic pastis, 100% natural, specially intended for a festive public , faithful to the terraces and aperitifs with friends.
It is offered here in a wooden box with 3 superb petanque balls , so that the experience is complete. The ideal gift for all lovers!
Pastis and petanque, an art of living in the sun
Both playful and modern , this new generation pastis combines with petanque, the other great tradition of the village, and more particularly at its Place des Lices.
An association that makes one of the particularities of the bottle: the cork-cochonnet ! Without forgetting its name , 12/12 like twelve to twelve, the famous match ball , when two teams are neck and neck to win the game which is played in 13 points.
Tasting Notes
Veiled luminous copper color
Powerful nose, rich in liquorice, star anise, candied fruit, rosemary thyme, incense
Well-balanced palate: there is a powerful pastis, full, with a beautiful character but with a hint of peach jam and fresh figs
Fresh, tangy finish with light touches of almonds
An extraordinary box
An extraordinary Pastis, an extraordinary box!
This 12/12 box combines a 12/12 Pastis carafe in vintage-shaped glass with a contemporary design. The shape of the bottle, like a direct and sincere homage to the history of pastis , recalls that of the decanters of the 1950s, which were and still are part of the ritual of serving pastis.
Its decor is contemporary, etched in the glass in chromography as the traditions of gentle living are in the village of Saint-Tropez. It was made by an artist and childhood friend of the creators of pastis 12/12, Quentin Monge, who was inspired by a game of Petanque, one of the strongest local traditions.
Each bottle has its cork-pig, a cork topped with a detachable varnished wooden piggy, exclusive to the brand and a real fun object. It is an equivocal nod to the eternal union between pastis and petanque .
A wink pushed further in this box, where we also find 3 superb petanque balls, enough to live the experience to the end.
An artisanal and natural production, inspired by the past of Saint-Tropez
To develop the recipe for Pastis 12/12, the creators of the brand went to question the elders of the village, those who knew the production of pastis in the backyards of houses. Each house added its own maceration of plants and spices, harvested from the gardens and wild spaces of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, to a base of neutral alcohol, anise and liquorice.
We found mainly fig, orange blossom, myrtle and thyme in these recipes. Some members of the Italian community in the village also added a small drop of amaretto to sweeten the mixture. This tradition gave birth to the Mauresque, a famous cocktail between pastis and orgeat syrup.
With their heads full of these testimonials , the partners turned to the master liquorist of Cristal Liminana, one of the last small family and artisanal distilleries in Provence, and the oldest in Marseille, to develop an exclusive recipe , that of Pastis 12/12, made from plants harvested by hand in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez and a hint of sweet almonds .
12/12, the story of a village, the story of friends
Pastis 12/12 is a real mix of stories, part of which remains to be written and that's good, because Pastis, in Provena§al, means mix!
That of its founders, a group of childhood friends from Saint-Tropez, as passionate about petanque as they are connoisseurs of pastis,
That of their elders, the first Italians from Saint-Tropez, who inspired the recipe with a touch of sweet almond, a nod to the Amaretto in the mouth,
That of a meeting, on the Place des Lices, between this group of friends and spirits producers, during a game that was played at "12/12, match ball!"
That of a bet, to relaunch Pastis de Saint-Tropez, 70 years after Mont Peculet, and this with plants from the Gulf of Saint-Tropez!
