This stamp illustrates green anise, known locally as “Habbet Hlaoua”. The visual presents the umbelliferous plant on one side and its use on the other, through a cup of steaming infusion and a bottle of essential oil. Anise is inseparable from traditional Tunisian pastries and digestive remedies. This stamp highlights the delicacy of this plant and its deep integration into the Tunisian art of living, combining taste pleasure and soothing virtues.
