Outstanding licorice. Similar, if not the same, as "old style" licorice from the 50s. Has a nice, solid texture, excellent flavor, and is a "happy" treat in a just-right size.

Exceptional old-fashioned licorice is a real hit with me! I consume about 2 sticks a day and goes well with my diabetic diet. I highly recommend this tasty treat since it poses no rise in my blood glucose levels.
