Spezzatina Barone Licorice 20g Licorice bits by Amarelli

Yes, real Italian licorice mate. Take a few moments to allow your taste buds to adjust. It’s a strong almost bitter coffee like experience, but it’s very nice. It’s very intriguing and it is rich and bold flavored. A slight bitterness is actually nice. These are tiny little pieces in a very tiny can, but there are many pieces in the can. One at a time is all you need and you can savour it for quite a while. I was looking forward to this package arriving and I am so glad I made the purchase. It’s a very unique earthy strong sensation in your mouth. It’s not a burning sensation. It’s a very mellow as I said slightly bitter espresso like taste I’m enjoying this very much and if you don’t Send the remainder of your box to me and I’ll have them.

This is the 90% cacao of licorice! To me, it tastes like snaps without the candy shell; it's no sweeter than a "sweet" spice. It seems to help when my allergies are acting up, so it's a keeper! There is a limit, however, to how much pure licorice can be safely consumed, so I recommend you look it up and be informed as to what would be a safe amount for you, but be sure what you're looking at is pure licorice. I have no problem staying within the recommended amount, though. It's a little costly, but it works for me as long as the price doesn't go up.

A black, flat, bitter licorice flavor: if you want it, you know already. And for the record, they are not an exact replacement for Cachou Lajaunie. (My search continues...)

I thought I ordered the Black tin received the Green tin, yet all aspects of delivery were great. This product is also good, the Black tim is a deeper licorice flavor

hard candy. not chewy.container is 2"x2"x1/2'high. disappointed but there was no mention of size and mentioned licorice bits!

My only suggestion is if you don't know what this is don't buy it. I took a chance and ordered it. It's hard to describe other than an OVERPOWERING taste of... something. I'm not sure what. I tried a little nub (about a tub tac maybe smaller) and i had to take it out of my mouth like 4 different times. 30 minutes AFTER trying it my mouth tasted pleasantly like licorice. I just tried it (the same one I keep taking out of my mouth) one last time and I chewed it up. I shouldn't have done that. I regret my decisions.

I love these things but they are very strong and most people don't understand that this is licorice and not candy.

Like so many, I was looking for a Sen Sen substitute and found these. The first one I had, honestly I did not like and thought what a chore these are going to be to finish. The second one was a bit better and by the third I was having to pace myself so I didn't finish the rest in a day. They took a minute to get used to but now I love them and will for sure get them again. Add it to the list of good but different than Sen Sen. Note, these are fat little square pillows of hard licorice. Different shape than many other hard licorice bits I've had. Strange they don't show a photo of them on the Amazon page...
