An orange-flower-and-rum-scented brioche from southwest France, baked in a deep mould and topped with pearl sugar. A Landes specialty long sold in Bordeaux bakeries; Maison Zurcher keeps the tradition.

Pastis landais (from Gascon pastis, meaning cake) is a brioche specialty of the Landes and Béarn regions south of Bordeaux, flavoured with rum and orange-flower water. It travelled north through Aquitaine trade routes and became a fixture of Bordeaux bakeries alongside the canelé. Patisserie Valantin and Maison Zurcher in central Bordeaux remain among the city's most consistent sources.
