ouzon.

Brit.

/ˈuːzəʊ/, U.S.

/ˈuzoʊ/

Forms: 1800s ouso, 1800s– ouzo.

Origin: A borrowing from Greek. Etymon: Greek ούζο.

Etymology: < modern Greek ούζο, of uncertain origin.The etymology of the Greek word is disputed. A popular derivation is from the Italian designation uso Massalia ‘for the (commercial) use of Marseilles’ stamped on packages of selected silkworm cocoons exported in the 19th cent. via Volos from the Thessalian town of Tyrnavos. The designation came to stand for ‘superior quality’, which the spirit distilled as ouzo was thought to possess: see A. Tzartzanos in Indogermanische Forschungen (1934) 52 217–20.

A clear aniseed-flavoured spirit, originally from Greece, frequently drunk with or without added water as an aperitif; a glass of this.
