Cachou Lajaunie - Hard Licorice Candies From France, 8 Tins 8x0.25oz

I've been searching high and low and over many years for a Sen-Sen replacement, and this is the closest thing I have found to my memory! They are great! As a FYI, the lid does not lift open or remove. You twist the top against the bottom and a little opening appears on the side for you to shake one out. Because I don't read French I lost my first few piece on the floor as I struggled to remove the lid. This has great flavor, and I gave a tin to one of my older neighbors who had fond stories of SenSen. He was thrilled to taste it again as well.

Excellent flavor.

I quit smoking six months ago but was having a hard time weaning myself entirely off of nicotine replacements. These helped me successfully do that. At about 3.3 cents per mint, they cost a lot less than Nicorette gum, lozenges, etc, too. Another reviewer mentioned having a hard time opening the little can. DON'T open it! Removal of the adhesive strip around the circumference reveals a slot, through which one or two mints can be dispensed. Just turn the top and bottom in opposite directions to reveal (and seal) the hole. I had previously tried some other, larger licorice and licorice/mint candies, but these tiny things work just as well for me without my feeling as though I am getting a licorice OD.

My girl & I make a point to sample every variety of liquorice we come across, from Italy to Netherlands. First picked these up at an Aldi in France, been hooked ever since. Not at all sweet, nice mixture of something minty (eucalyptus i guess?) and I think they have a floral essence as well, iris maybe. Anyway, whatever it is, it works. not too sweet, leaves your mouth very clean.only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that I bought them from Aldi first, $3 a tin is a pretty steep markup from what they cost in store. I realize they are an import, but they are pretty small and light weight, shipping shouldn't be a great expense... doesn't matter. I'm hooked.

As the title says, tastes like sen sen's and formed nearly the same, maybe a little thicker. The container they come in is very handy for dispensing one at a time. It is a little hard to open at first

It works like miracle. Take care of you upset stomach, keep your throat cleared and give you a nice fresh breath. Not use it before you receive swab drug test. You will surely fail. LOL.

I love licorice but these taste horrible. Company doesn't accept returns. I should have read the return policy.

Since I am a 50 year fan of SenSen and they don't make it anymore, these have been a good substitute.!
