A fairly nice herbal liquorice/minty tea, though not my favourite. Besides licorice root, there is peppermint and fennel seed in this tea. There is NO anise/aniseed. My palate is very familiar with both licorice root and aniseed (they are 2 different ingredients) and I like both to be present. But that’s just my personal preference. It is recommended on the packet to use up to double the quantity that I would normally use (and I like my licorice ‘tea’ strong). There is a slightly minty aftertaste.

PS. Unlike popular belief, fennel seed and anise seed are not the same, they come from different plants. :)

Flavors: Licorice, Mint
