Menozzi De Rosa - Pure Italian Liquorice Pellets (150g)

Ah the finest but with caveats. If you eat a jar you will have the runs and hypertension too. (Don't do that it's dangerous) If you can exercise some proper impulse control and only return to the jar for little top ups you will be rewarded each time with a proper liquorice experience. Proper serious liquorice this is, string in taste, naturally sweet and a bit hard to begin with until you crunch into it or let the enzymes in your mouth do the work, but I have no patience with liquorice because it's delicious so crunch crunch. Will make your tooth black

Hard, tasty and easy , quick snack to suck on.

Used for baking, making liquorice syrup à la Nigella. Works well, worth the effort.

Right, well, firstly these licorice pellets do NOT come in a tin as the product page says, but come in a plastic pot with a plastic lid. The Amazon paper mailing bag was undamaged, as was the paper strip, indicating that the plastic jar had not been opened. However, the jar lid was cracked (see photo) and the pellets had melted together into a solid block. (See photo.) The jar had clearly been stored upside-down, as the 'block' of licorice pellets was flat on top as it had contacted the lid, and had space at the bottom of the jar. (See photo.) I have bought licorice pellets many times. I find them excellent for a sore throat. I developed a heavy cold over the weekend, and had run out, hence ordering them. I normally buy other brands (Amarelli or else Nipits) but the Amarelli was unavailable and the Nipits would have taken a few days extra to arrive, and I wanted to 'treat' my sore throat ASAP. So, I know very well what happens to pure licorice pellets when they are left out of the packet. They absorb moisture very readily and become sticky. (Rather like instant coffee granules spilt onto a kitchen counter.) I guess it's possible that these pellets actually melted in some blisteringly hot warehouse, but I think it more likely that the cracked lid allowed moist air in which stuck them all together. I phoned Amazon support and they arranged a refund. They didn't want the item sent back and said i could keep it. At that point I 'chiseled' out a few lumps with a sharp knife to taste. I'm glad I did because in fact, as at least one other reviewer has said, the texture was rather 'gritty' and they did not have much taste. Now, to be fair, I have a heavy cold, so it's possible that my sense of taste is affected, but I don't think so. I can taste other things OK. And the cold would not make the texture 'gritty'. It's kind of odd, because most reviewers say they are strong tasting and smooth in texture. It was just one review I read that said they were rather tasteless and 'gritty'. And is the gritty texture and weak taste related to being melted together into a block. Somehow I doubt it. Anyway, I won't be buying this brand again. I'll stick with the Amarelli and the Nipits. For a cold or sore throat the best ones are actually the Simpkins Nipits pellets with licorice and menthol.

This is pleasant pure hard liquorice in a convenient plastic tub, not to be mistaken for the soft stuff sold in sweetie shops. Although nice, it's flavour is somewhat lacking when doing a side-by-side comparison with a box of Amarelli Spezzatina.

If you love liquorice - this is it! The delicious flavour stays with you for hours after you have finished some of the pastilles.

Although I wasn't sure what to expect as my normal view point it a soft pliable texture which still has the beneficial qualities expounded by many health professionals...but...I just love these small pellet size pieces which are quite the opposite of the ones I thought would arrive..so my preference is just 2 pellets a day, which I also find refresh my pallet...and the small screwtop jar is a handy size to keep on the kitchen table...good value, price and will definitely buy this product again...though this is my personal view point...

The best value for money for liquorice lovers on amazon.

Sabor muy suave. Agradable

Reine Lakritz schmeckt zwar ein wenig süß, ist aber eher ein ungefährliches naturheilkundliches Medikament als eine Süßigkeit. Es besänftigt bei Hustenreiz den gereizten Hals. Im Gegensatz zu gezuckerter Lakritz löst es bei mir kein Suchtverhalten aus. Wenn ich also ein kleines Stückchen der Lakritz - die durchaus nach Lakritz schmeckt - esse ist daher nicht am gleichen Tag die ganze Packung leer sondern es bleibt für geraume Zeit bei dem einen Stück.

Bon reglisse si vous aimez
