Toms Pingvin Salzpastillen Salt Pastiller - bag of 100g / 3.5Oz

als liebhaber starker lakritze liess ich mich zum kauf hinreissen...die ernüchterung folgte dann sofort in anbetracht des stolzen preises hatte ich ja auch eine gewisse erwartungshaltung.nicht mehr ganz neu, das mhd mit dem amazon label abgedeckt, alles klar. vom geschmack her keine überraschung aber hart.bei einem preis wo andere die zehnfache menge liefern muss ich zugeben ... reingefallen! man möchte fast sagen besch....fazit ein normales lakritz und das geld nicht wert. nie wieder.

Ich habe diese Salzpastillen mal von einer Freundin geschenkt bekommen und war begeistert. Als jemand, der regelmäßig "abartige" Lakritzsorten aus Schweden, Norwegen oder Finnland importiert, dachte ich, man könnte mich nicht mehr überraschen. Weit gefehlt.Die Lakritze hat einen schön-starken Geschmack, beim Kauen (oder Lutschen) folgt kurz darauf das intensive Salzige bzw. die Salmiak-Note.Persönlich mag ich die Konsistenz auch sehr - wer die Veilchen-Pastillen von Rheila kennt, wird diese Lakritze mögen: es handelt sich bei den Salzpastillen von Pingvin um richtige "Plombenzieher".Genau mein Geschmack, daher von mir 5 Sterne.

Ich liebe Salzlakritz! Deshalb habe ich mir hier die original Toms Pingvin Salzpastillen bestellt, die man früher nur auf einem Butterschiff nach Dänemark bekommen konnte. Einfach super! Ich mag sie und bestelle sie bei Bedarf immer wieder.

Mega lecker und Salzig, genau so wie ich es aus den NL kenne. Gab es vor kurzem auch noch bei Rew..Salz Lakritz Liebhaber müssen die probiere.

Dieses Lakritz ist ordentlich, aber nicht stärker als deutsches oder niederländisches Lakritz. Fest im Biss und unbestäubt von Salmiak-Salz. Kann man essen, aber nicht den Aufwand wert.

Wer Salzlakritze liebt, wird mit diesen Pastillen glücklich sein! Sie sind nicht hart, aber auch nicht zu weich,und bleiben daher genußvoll lange im Mund.

Ich als großer Salmiak-Fan bin so froh, dass man über Amazon dieses Produkt erwerben kann, da es das nicht in jedem Geschäft zu kaufen gibt.

I was introduced to the Pingvin Salt Pastiller about 5 years ago in Miami when I met some Swedish tourists who had purchased them at the Duty Free shop on their way out of the country. I was in love. This is the greatest liquorice on the planet. I don't know why I even qualified that. It's the greatest candy on the planet. According to my Swedish friends, Swedish Duty Free shops were the ONLY place to buy this treasure. Thus, as an American I've been mostly deprived of it over the past five years. I've scoured the internet over and over again, hoping someone would start carrying it, but each time I found the same thing . . . fellow non-Swedes in the same position as me--unable to get a hold of the greatest candy on earth.Until now. I saw this product for sale here. It's not in the traditional Pingvin Salt Pastiller packaging (the pill container--I added a photo), but it looked like it might be the same stuff. Well, I took a chance on it--ordered 3 bags to minimize the sting of shipping--and ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner. This is the real deal. The packaging is different, but the content is the same.Now that I'm sure, my next order will be for more like 10 or 20 bags. Get it while it's available. Who knows when this seller will close up shop?Note: If you've never had salt liquorice before, be warned that it is a VERY strong liquorice and it's very salty. Many non-Scandinavians are repulsed by it. I initially thought it was pretty revolting. But my repulsion very quickly became an addiction. It's an acquired taste, but one that I acquired surprisingly quickly. And now nothing else comes close.

These pastilles are hard to find outside of Scandanavian and European airports. I searched and found a source for the 10oz plastic jars, but re--ordering those is always iffy so I depend on these 100g bags. I am a big supporter of the BLM movement (Black Licorice Matters) and these are my favorites. They have just the right amount of ammonium chloride, or whatever it is they use to make them taste like a diaper pail. Yummmmm.

I first tried this licorice as a child while visiting family in Sweden and fell in love with its salty and chewy texture. It's my dad's absolute favorite licorice but its nearly impossible to find outside of Sweden. The last time we got our hands on some was when my cousin came to the US from Sweden and we begged him to bring us some pingvin salz pastiller (which typically comes in a plastic container). Of course it didn't last long, and that was nearly 10 years ago. Yes, it's been 10 years since we've last had them...a rough 10 years. Ive tried other brands of hard salty licorice and while some are pretty good, they're just not the same. When I found the pingvin salz pastiller on amazing I nearly lost my s*** and immediately ordered 12 bags (which was the remaining stock). I can't wait to see my dads expression when I give it to him on Father's Day!

We first found this confection when travelling in Iceland. They have an affection for things licorice there (their signature "Black Death" aquavit has a licorice flavor, also really good). This is not your gooey, sweet, chewy, coloured rubbish. There is so much flavor in one pastille, it's unbelievable. It is an acquired taste and salty/tangy, not sweet. I'm a sucker, not a chewer and three pastilles at the end of the evening is a wonderful palate pleaser. Try it, you'll either love it or hate it based on a survey of friends. You know which side of the opinion poll I belong.

I always buy these when my travels get me to Scandinavian airports ... and I never seem to buy enough.These are for adults. Not candy for children. They are salty, not sweet. Very salty! If you are looking for slightly less sweet licorice, look for Katjes (red or green bags).

good

Yes, this is the candy I use to get from Europe. It has that same flavor of anise and a certain amount of salt, you will never forget. The speed in which t arrived was right on. I will definitely be buying more, Harbo has a great selection from around the world!!

It is very good if you like salty hard licorice. I think I like licorice with a bit softer of a texture (you can't really chew this you have to suck on it). But I still liked it and I will probably buy it again.
