Looking for the best licorice in 2025?
Taste is personal, but good licorice has a few things in common: it smells good, has the right chewiness and leaves an aftertaste you actually want to keep. At Finsk Lakrits, we love licorice that tastes better than it looks – and that's why we've put together this guide for you who want to find the best licorice of the year, regardless of whether you like sweet, salty or a little bit of both.
What distinguishes really good licorice?
Really good licorice isn't just about taste – it's about feeling. Licorice should be balanced, neither too hard nor too soft, and the flavors should come in layers. A good piece of licorice doesn't just taste "licorice" – it can be round, peppery, smoky, fruity or salty with finesse.
🔍 Tip! Look for liquorice that contains real liquorice root – that's what gives the depth of flavor.
Licorice: for those who like it soft and balanced
Sweet liquorice is a classic that never goes out of style. It's perfect for those who like softer flavors but still want a distinct character. Our own sweet liquorice is just that – round, smooth and just the right amount of sweetness without being gooey.
Salted liquorice: a Nordic favorite
Salted licorice isn't for everyone – but for many, it's the only licorice that counts. There's something about the saltiness, the licorice root, and that little touch of ammonium chloride that makes the flavor explode.
Our salted licorice is created for balance: not overly strong, but with just the right bite. An adult favorite that many return to again and again.
Mixed & classics – for those who want it all
Liquorice doesn't always have to be strict. In our mixed collection you'll find sugary marmalade balls, licorice-coated candies and other childhood treats. There's something for everyone - perfect for gift bags, home theater or the office drawer.
Bonus: fresh licorice tastes better
We often get asked: “What is fresh licorice?” The answer is simple: it is licorice that has not been stored for months. It is smoother, more flavorful and usually without unnecessary additives. Fresh licorice is not a trend – it is a taste experience.
Conclusion – your taste journey starts here
Whether you've been a licorice fan since childhood or are curious to try something new, we hope this guide helps you find your favorite. At Finsk Lakrits, we combine taste with simplicity – so you get really good licorice, without the hassle.
