Our licorice factory dates back to 1876 with a very rich tradition in the production of licorice. It is known for its extensive assortment of licorices, its traditional pieces that have been around for decades. During the last few years we have been bringing back licorice that contains "gum arabic" in addition to the starch. The "gum arabic" ingredient make the licorice firmer, but it possesses the unique quality of bringing out the flavor much better. You will taste the difference with this premium piece of licorice. We also added a hint of bay leaf extract.
