Darrell Lea Soft Australian Licorice, Non-GMO, No Palm Oil, Plant Based, No High Fructose Corn Syrup, Soft & Chewy Licorice Candy, Made in Australia (Original Black, 7 Ounce (Pack of 1))

This is the best licorice on planet earth. And I don’t say that lightly — I’ve eaten a lot of licorice in a lot of countries around the globe, and this one tops them all. The flavor is rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced — not overly sweet, not bitter, just that classic, satisfying licorice taste done right. The texture is exactly what you want too: fresh, soft, and easy to enjoy without being sticky or tough. It consistently arrives fresh and delicious, which makes a huge difference. You can tell it hasn’t been sitting around. They’ve also recently improved the packaging, and it’s a noticeable upgrade. It’s much easier to open, reseal, and grab a piece for daily snacking without making a mess or needing to transfer it to another container. If you’re a licorice fan, this is absolutely worth trying. It’s become a repeat purchase for me.

Best licorice available. Soft chewed and flavorful

Delicious black licorice! Much better than RJ and for less money!

I am a big licorice fan. The best stuff cost more than I can afford. This licorice is affordable, so I can justify my addiction. This is made in Australia. It is soft. It has a strong taste. It was about 50 cents an ounce. It has sugar in it, but no corn syrup or Palm Oil. I never buy candy or food that has Corn Syrup or Palm Kernal Oil. Just about everything has Corn Syrup and Palm Kernal Oil. The only reason the food manufactures use those two ingredients is because they are cheap, but that are poison. This is the only cheap licorice that does not use them. I wish they didn’t use regular sugar. They should use more Annise and Molases for flavor and sweetener. If they still need sweetener, they should use organic raw, cane sugar. I have purchased lot’s of licorice from Darell Lea, their pricing is all over the place on Amazon. I only buy quantities when I get it for around 50 cents an ounce. This time I had to buy a 10 pack to get this price. If I had purchased 1 bag, it would have been twice as much, and not worth that price.

This is an excellent product; the licorice is soft, flavorful, and marginally addictive. It is my constant companion next to my recliner. I buy this by the box rather than the package because it is so head and hands above other licorice that I have had. If you haven't had soft, juicy Australian black licorice, run - don't walk - to the order panel and buy some now. It sticks to your fingers and is messy, which gives you a perfectly justifiable reason to lick your fingers. Why 4 stars instead of 5? For the most minor flaw - packaging; I've had trouble in the past opening and resealing the package, which is frustrating. In fact, I contacted them about it. The packages in the latest box I received, however, have a better and more easily opened/reclosed seal! They may actually have taken customer feedback and acted on it! I'll hold off - until I've ordered a few more times - believing such a miracle, but if so, there needs to be a six star rating. This licorice is truly a high point of my day - and I am PICKY! Try it - you'll love it.

best licorice available....very dense, non waxy, and the black is not shy of anise and a little sweet, the apple is tangy/little sweet....you'll never eat twizzlers or the like again, no more plastic licorice!

Love this brand! The licorice is always so fresh, so soft and chewy and flavorful. Will be adding to our list of recurring shipments!

I may come across as a bit of a licorice snob, but that doesn’t mean I actually know what I’m talking about—I just know what I like! I’ve tried lots of black licorice over the years, and these chews really stand out. The flavor is rich, the texture is wonderfully soft, and they’re genuinely enjoyable to eat. If I have one complaint, it’s that they can be a little sticky. But the packages are well sealed, so they store nicely in my pantry for whenever the craving hits—which is helpful, because it’s a lot of licorice.

All arrived in a box which had the branding on. Taste is amazing it’s a soft eating liquorice but does have a firmness to it which is very tasty. It’s quite expensive but worth it for a treat.

Soft and delicious treat very pleasantly surprised!

Délicieux, la réglisse était fraîche, tendre et goûteuse. Rapport qualité/prix, ça vaut bien 5 étoiles, j'en ai commandé à nouveau.

IMO better than Walabey. Softer tastier and many more pieces in a bag

Always enjoy Darrell Lea products, but would like to be able to purchase their dark-chocolate-covered licorice "Bullets" as well.
