Lucky Country is a nickname sometimes used to describe Australia. Our famous licorice was actually started by a lucky accident. During the process of making a batch of hard licorice, an Australian candy maker miscalculated and made a soft, smooth product. Aussie-style soft licorice was born. Almost 50 years later, it is still Australia's largest selling licorice. Our Australian founder, Lenka Dransfield, has made Lucky Country aussie-style soft licorice available to the rest of the world for over a decade now. Our soft chewy product delivers more flavor in every bite compared to standard hard licorice.
