Unusual texture - full of flavor!Aug 17, 2010
By drfugawe
Because I love licorice in general, I check out Amazon's selections every once in awhile - and whenever I can get a good bulk price, I try a new type. This was among my most recent buys. I loved these Gustaf's Zaanse Drops- I'm not sure if the inconsistent texture is supposed to be there, but of the gum based drops and diamonds, only a few I've had so far have been soft and easy to chew - in fact, each one I try seems to have a different texture, going from soft and chewy like a gum drop, right up to tough and resistant to the chew (not hard or stale). Now please recognize, it's the tough and resistant texture that I love the most - and to me, the inconsistency of the texture is part of this candy's charm.
I also loved the unique flavor of this one - it's a bit stronger licorice kick than found in most other licorice candies, especially wimpy American types, and there's even a subtle sense of the salt taste that characterizes Dutch licorices, but not in an offensive way (I've had some Dutch licorice that I did not enjoy because of too much salt - this one is hardly noticeable to me).
I'll be ordering this one again - it's a winner.
