Cavendish & Harvey | Sour Lemon Hard Candy Drops | 5.3 Ounce Tin - 3 Pack

Use this for my dry mouth. They’re delicious and nice and tart.

Just love these things! Sweet and tart. Just the best.

Delicious. Great for a refreshing treat.

Exactly as advertised... just the right amount of tartness, with a wee bit of sweetness. Although it's definitely a "sour lemon" drop, it's not at all bitter as I've occasionally found with other lemon hard candies. A very pleasant, satisfying flavor.

Once in a great while, our grocery store carries this product. Mostly around Christmas and then they disappear. My wife really likes this hard candy….me too. The sour lemon is the big seller and on my first try ordering with Amazon, it was not available. I diligently watched Amazon and found it back in stock. There are other manufacturers out there that make these candies in similar cans, but we think this brand candies can’t be beat.

Honestly the main reason I'm even writing this is because I feel a little misled by the reviews here. I actually think these are among the *least* sour lemon hard candies I've tried. They're fine, I suppose, but the "lemon" flavor tastes more like those "lemon-lime" flavors (in fact, the closest analogy I can think of is like a hard candy version of a slightly tart lemon-lime soda).That being said, the candies are well-made with better ingredients than most U.S. candies. By comparison I'd say these are a sweeter version of Regal lemon drops (and a touch less sour). Some of the initial sweetness comes from the dusting of powdered sugar on the candies that dissolves after a minute to reveal the more sour candy itself (so it's sort of like a reverse Lemonhead, except the sourness of this candy is more tangy than anything and comparatively less sour than the outer shell of a Lemonhead).

I eat one most days. we recycle the containers for camping use. Lemon is the best.

They taste great and do not stick together.
