Dutch Licorice

Soft, chewy licorice pieces with a balanced sweet-and-salty flavor and distinctly herbaceous finish. This is the gentler side of Dutch licorice- not the intensely salty, bitter kind.

Crafted by the same makers who stocked our Opa’s apothecary, this licorice is a joyful tribute to childhood summers spent in Amsterdam. We import them fresh and wrap them with care in Portland, Oregon.

  • Soft, Chewy & Herbaceous
  • Made in Holland, Wrapped in Oregon
  • Vegan & Gluten Free

Not All Licorice is Created Equal

★★★★★
Being a gluten-free licorice lover, I have found it hard to satisfy my craving. Licorice flavored hard candy is not the same. This Dutch licorice is the real thing! Soft, chewy, very strong licorice taste! A little salty edge …exquisite! I purchase 4 packages and quickly decided on 4 more to gift my daughter…also a big licorice fan and gluten-free!

Where do I begin first I love licorice. This licorice is excellent, soft and tasty. I must admit I bought 3 bags and they were gone before I know it. I want to purchase (I probably will) more yet I'm cautious because because they are delictable.

FROM OPA’S APOTHECARY

A Little Thank-You, Then and Now.

In our Opa’s Amsterdam apothecary, every customer left with a "dropje" - a small piece of Dutch licorice offered as a gesture of thanks.

These soft, herbaceous buttons were one of our childhood favorites. Today, we’re sharing them with you in that same generous spirit.

From our family to yours! - Enjoy!

i loved the Licorice, I've

"i loved the Licorice, I've been looking for good treats for 13 years. I sent a few of them to my friend in Chicago, She order more than i, she and never have the best Licorice, thank you post the aid on the net"

— david l. (5/5)

This is the best licorice

"This is the best licorice I've ever had in my life! I didn't think I would like it because it has a very faint amount of salt. Typically I don't like salted licorice but it doesn't taste like that it's just enough to get you hooked lol. The texture is perfect the flavor is incredible and they are so addicting! If you like black licorice you can't possibly go wrong with these"
