Read this). The Finns like their liquorice salty, the Dutch do too, but the Finns have just the right balance of salt and sweet for a truly complex flavour. The Dutch also do a salt liquorice (they even have the mind bendingly salty double zout for those with a real death-wish) but the Finnish one is the real deal. The texture is also perfection, a bit chewy, a bit flaky and with the barest smattering of sugar on the outside. A strong start from the frozen North. Yu, J. J; Zhang, C. S; Coyle, M.

[8] The principal glycoside, glycyrrhizin, exists in content of 7% to 10%, depending on cultivation practices.
