Licoricelike flavor (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

anise

'licoricelike flavor' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for anise that I've seen before include "Aromatic Mediterranean plant" , "Plant giving ouzo flavour" , "Plant with aromatic seeds" , "Herb with aromatic seeds" , "Plant with liquorice-flavoured seeds" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
