Fortuin Wilhelmina Peppermints, 7-Ounce Bags (Pack of 12) Review

Fortuin Wilhelmina Peppermints, 7-Ounce Bags (Pack of 12)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

I grew up in a small town in Michigan with heavy Dutch roots, and one of my favorite Christmas traditions was when my Mom brought out the tin of Wilhelmina peppermints in December. These mints are very different to your typical American breath mints - larger size, different texture, and milder taste. Somehow they're pepperminty without being Menthol-y, and they have a slightly sweet aftertaste - with perhaps a hint of vanilla? They're perfect for an after-dinner treat that freshens your breath without burning your tongue or totally shocking your taste buds... Anyway, I hadn't had any in years and was delighted to find them on Amazon. I bought some for my boyfriend to try, and he quickly became addicted to the "Christmas mints" and always keeps a baggie on hand!

Gustaf's Dutch Licorice Coins, 7-Ounce Containers (Pack of 6) Review

I like these a lot. They are only slightly salty, with a bit of molasses sweetness, all balanced against a mild licorice flavor. They are medium-hard and very chewy, although they must be kept in an airtight container or they get too hard. Personally I would prefer a stronger licorice flavor, but these are still among my favorites.
Salty licorice is indeed a strange thing for those who haven't tried it before. If you've never had it before, don't start with a case (like what's sold here). And definitely stay away from Double Salt licorice until you've learned whether you like the saltiness.
If you want black licorice but don't want the salty flavor, try "Haribo licorice wheels". Those have more licorice flavor than these coins, and less other flavor. They're a bit sweet and a bit softer.
Note that these coins also come in bags. Buying them that way is slightly more cost-effective, but the tubs might be a little more airtight.

It takes a somewhat acquired taste to appreciate this flavorful, lightly salty licorice with lots of character. If in doubt, first try the "soft drops" or the "sweet and firm cats". Traditional Dutch. Made in Holland.

La Pipette Black Licorice Pipes Candy 60 Count Box Review

Candy cigarettes are harder to find nowadays - but if you can't get your kids hooked on chewing tobacco with Big League Chew or on cigarettes with the candy variety, why not have them look distinquished as they prepare for pipe smoking?
The style of these pipes is pretty old fashioned, to tell you the truth, so unless your kids have relatives who smoke pipes, they probably won't really get what this thing is. In a nutshell, this is some yummy licorice. If you don't like licorice, you won't like the pipes at all. I would consider these to be treats for adults. This isn't the 1970s - we should know better than to give toy smokes to a kid.

Our licorice factory dates back to 1876 with a very rich tradition in the production of licorice. It is known for its extensive assortment of licorices, its traditional pieces that have been around for decades. The Farm Salt licorice is one of those traditional pieces. When the Dutch consumers see this product in the store, they know what to expect: A slightly salted piece of licorice that is firm in texture. This is a great piece for people that are not familiar with salted licorice. The Money (Coin) licorice has a great following and it is highly appreciated for its great character.

I am sorry, but this is not authentic Dutch licorice. The original Dutch Licorice, known in Holland as 'Drop', is made with Arabic Gum. However, Gustaf's is made with Wheat Starch instead, probably because it is much cheaper. That does affect the taste, as Wheat starch has a more sticky pasty texture, where Arabic Gum has a firmer and smoother texture.
Nevertheless, this is by far the best 'Drop' I have found so far that is readily available in the USA for a decent price. Importing the real stuff can get quite expensive. So, I will be buying this again.
