Aniseed Historical Snippets:
Anise Seed originated in the Middle East. It’s long history of therapeutic and spiritual use dates as far back as 3,400 BC. The proof is in the fact that the seed is mentioned in Ebar’s Papyrus which is one of the oldest medical scripts known to mankind. It was used to treat epilepsy, coughs and for its carminative effects. Also used to attract homing pigeons!
