Comments about RJ's New Zealand Licorice:

I tried both flavors and loved them both. The original flavor is concetrated and smooth, leaving the great taste on the tounge. The rasberry is light and refreshing. Both so good, one package becomes one serving!

OMG... Love the Black licorice Flavor. I am addictive to them. The Raspberry ones were flavoraful as well but i find the black ones more flavorful and actually smoother and softer.

Comments about RJ's New Zealand Licorice:

I discovered this product on a trip to NZ in 2002 and can honestly say that there is no better licorice anywhere. I live in Canada so at present I have to order on line to satisfy my addiction. Interestingly the Australian product is touted as being from NZ but somewhere along the line it lost its flavour. (like Guinness being exported). Now that I spend winters in Florida I can find the product much more readily. Hey RJ there's LOLL's (lots of licorice lovers) in Canada so please accommodate.

Comments about RJ's New Zealand Licorice:

Only Fazer licorice from Finland is better. Perhaps [...] could add that to the product line? RJ's licorice is a bit too sweet for my taste and could use a little more tang, but it still is excellent and I will buy it again.

Comments about RJ's New Zealand Licorice:

This is one of my favorite soft black licorices. My father and I are die hard licorice fans, and we really enjoy this. It is milder than some, but with a nice texture and lovely licorice flavor. My favorite "soft" licorice.
