Amarelli Licorice Favette with Mint 100g - Calabrian licorice 100% with natural mint extract

Amarelli is a world-renowned licorice factory located in Calabria, Italy, which has been continuously producing this "black gold", beloved by connoisseurs of its exquisite taste, using the same artisanal methods since 1731!

Infused with the essence of distinct licorice, these tiny, glossy black dragees, in classic and fanciful shapes, contain no sugar or sweeteners. Their inimitable taste is only enhanced by additions such as mint or anise extract.

The best licorice in the world, according to the authoritative text of Encyclopedia Britannica, is produced in Calabria. This plant, belonging to the legume family and scientifically named Glycyrrhiza Glabra, has been known to humanity for over 35 centuries. Its roots yield a juice that has been valued over time for its pleasant and medicinal properties.

After the roots are harvested from local lands, through subsequent processing stages that are a successful combination of craftsmanship and technology, the raw root transforms into fragrant, black, and shiny licorice. The processes of selecting licorice roots, extracting juices, cooking, and concentrating take place in departments that are now sophisticated and computerized, but still rely on classical art. Invariably, the final touch is still the master licorice maker, who personally supervises the appropriate degree of solidification of the licorice mass. From this moment, the thick, black, shiny, and fragrant 'dough' takes on desired shapes thanks to a series of prototype machines created based on the company's centuries-old experience.

This is how Amarelli's Spezzata, Rombetti, Favette, Bianconeri, and Sassolini are born. All licorices find their place in colorful packaging and iconic metal boxes, which reproduce ancient images taken from the archives of the Amarelli House collection, as well as new original and unique designs created specifically for Amarelli.
