hist-brewing: Licorice

[JazzboBob at aol.com]

I have a perennial herb growing in my garden that is called ANISE-HYSSOP or 
LICORICE MINT. Official name is Agastache foeniculum.  It's not real 
licorice, but has a beautiful licorice like aroma and flavor with a bit of a 
minty and lemony underlying scent.  It's easy to grow.  I've often added a 
bit to my porters at the end of the boil to add some pleasant aromas.  It 
makes a delicious tea.  And I use it in my homemade rootbeer.
