Anis de flavigny

Anise of Flavigny is a candy from Flavigny-sur-Ozerain in Burgundy, France. Anise candies were first made by the Benedictine monks of the abbey of Flavigny founded in 719. 

The manufacturer remains today at the abbey, Maison Troubat, who  follows a recipe which has been in use since 1591.

Each candy is made with a single anise seed enrobed with beet sugar.
