What is Licorice?

Licorice is a traditional confection made from the root of the licorice plant. It has a naturally sweet and slightly herbal flavor. Finnish licorice is especially known for its soft texture and deep, rich taste, often balanced with a mild sweetness or fruity notes.

What is Salmiakki?

Salmiakki, or salty licorice, is a uniquely Nordic treat flavored with ammonium chloride (salmiak). It has an intense, salty, and slightly medicinal flavor that often surprises first-time tasters.
