Violet Abbaye De Flavigny Anise Drops All Natural Bulk 8.8 Oz Bag (2 PACK)

Delicate treat
Loved these for 40 years. Nice to be able to buy in bulk. Delicate flavor/scent with nice contrast of the anise seed in middle. Store carefully away from other strong smells. I accidentally left a snack baggie of these in the same desk drawer as some smokehouse almonds. Somehow the smoke flavoring was absorbed by the candies a bit, making for a strange and unpleasant taste. From now on, I'll keep them in a tin or jar to enjoy their delicate flavor.

Dee-lisheous!
Let the candy dissolve on your tongue without crunching to enjoy a violet flower flavor until you get to the real treat in the center. This treat is a little anise seed. Crunching the seed at the end is the final prize. I bought the two pack so I can give one away for a Mother's Day gift. They shipped well, and there were no broken pieces.

Loved them then and 40yrs later they still taste as ...
When I was a teenager, at all times, I would have a tin of these candies in my purse. Loved them then and 40yrs later they still taste as beautiful as they did then. What a treat to get to enjoy the Violet Abbaye De Flavigny Anise Drops years later and have the same experience. Some things never change and shouldn't. I will need to resume carrying a tin of these candies at all times.

A REAL TREAT
Anis de Flavigny is more than candy. It has a very distinct taste and perfume. Anis gives it's taste to the typical renown French Pastis.With those drops you have the same benefits than with Pastis; furthermore, they're alcohol free !

Delicious and floral
I love these sweet floral mints! They are definitely violet flavored, so you probably won't like them if you don't like floral flavoring.

Nice change of pace
I enjoy the anise center, however, I was hoping for a little stronger violet flavor overall. Still I am enjoying a change of pace from the usual peppermint candies. The package seems expensive but it takes a long, long time to go through the entire contents. Good product, but I would like a little more violet flavor.

Reconnecting with a childhood favorite
I have loved these little candies since I was a child! They are horribly expensive but this bulk package takes the sting out of the price as I can fill the little tins I have already. I used to be able to buy these at Alpine Village but they haven't carried them for years now. Finding them over the years has been a challenge. Kind of like a treasure hunt. I am so happy for the choices available through Amazon!

Great mints!
I’ve loved these since I was a kid. Nice smooth coating around a piece of lavender. I use the bag to refill my tins since it makes $$$ sense.
