Ouzo alcohol at approximately 38% ABV and above, but not in water. Diluting the spirit causes it to separate creating an emulsion, whose fine droplets scatter the light. This process is called louching, and is also found while preparing absinthe. Similar aperitifs include oghi (from Armenia), mastika from Bulgaria and Macedonia, rakı from Turkey, pastis (France), and arak (from the Levant). Its aniseed flavour is also similar to the anise-flavoured liqueurs of sambuca (Italy) and anís (Spain) and the stronger spirits of absinthe (France and Switzerland). Aguardiente (Colombia), made from sugar cane, is also similar. The Italian drink "Pallini Mistra," named
Flavour (particle physics) description of the flavour symmetry is described by a chiral group . If all quarks had non-zero but equal masses, then this chiral symmetry is broken to the "vector symmetry" of the "diagonal flavour group" , which applies the same transformation to both helicities of the quarks. This reduction of symmetry is a form of "explicit symmetry breaking". The amount of explicit symmetry breaking is controlled by the current quark masses in QCD. Even if quarks are massless, chiral flavour symmetry can be spontaneously broken if the vacuum of the theory contains a chiral condensate (as it does in low-energy
