The ancient sweet of Kings
Liquorice has a rich and fascinating history, going back as far as the Ancient Egyptians, who made a sweet drink from the plant extract. It was brought to Britain by crusaders during the middle ages where a monastery in Pontefract began to use it to make the confectionery we know and love today.
Nowadays, liquorice sweets come in all shapes and sizes – coils, ropes, confits, lozenges – but they all share that deep, aniseed flavour and distinctive glossy sheen. As you'd expect, Rita Farhi liquorice is produced to the highest quality and is the perfect way to treat family and friends or to indulge yourself.
