Liquorice-flavoured seed of the anise plant (7)

I believe the answer is:

aniseed

(Other definitions for aniseed that I've seen before include "Licorice-flavoured sweets" , "Strong flavour" , "Natural flavouring" , "Eased in (anag)" , "Licorice-like flavour" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
