Gustaf's Salted Dutch Licorice Coins - 5.2 oz Bag

Having previously purchased this product in the US and Europe I was delighted to find it on Amazon. i love licorice and this product has a slight beeswax coating on each cute coin shaped piece so it isn't the sticky glued together in the bag variety. I enjoy its firmness and chewiness and pleasant licorice flavor, not overpowering like some European licorices. The saltiness too is just right, again not overpowering. It does not contain high fructose corn syrup making them a better quality product than licorices that do. The three pack size is perfect.

I like it, my taste bud's love it.

I like black licorice sold in America and I was aware Dutch licorice would be quite different. When it arrived I tried it knowing that if you’re not used to it, the taste can be surprising. My whole life I heard about how my mom’s Dutch relatives loved licorice, but “American licorice is nothing like Dutch licorice, You just have to try it.” This tasted like what my mom told me about, but keep in mind Dutch licorice is traditionally salted with ammonium chloride not table salt, so “Salty” Dutch licorice doesn’t really mean that it just tastes like sweet black licorice covered in table salt. Some Amazon reviewers are making the flavor out to be a flaw rather than a feature. It’s something you either try with an open mind, or something you grew up with. Then it can be quite addictive. Very enjoyable experience. I think it answered my questions about the mysterious “Dutch licorice” I’ve been hearing about since I was little, but never actually got a chance to try.

Terrible. Total waste of $15.00. I couldn't eat more than a couple of these garbage candies. I love licorice and this didn't even taste like licorice.

Great stuff.Reminded me of home.

If you like real black licorice. And when I say real black licorice I don't mean the candy kind like twizzlers. Then you will really enjoy these. I would have given five stars except the price is a little steep.

This licorice is so delicious. Not too sweet has a hint of salt but not overpowering in any way shape or form. It’s got a very nice firm texture. These are the best thing I bought in a long time. It’s a great licorice taste not the fake licorice taste.

Good

This was my second order. The product is exactly as advertised: DUTCH licorice, not to be confused with other sorts of licorice, brings back happy childhood memories.Thanks for the fast delivery (US to SG in only 10 days! 1 day faster than estimated).
