My father's best friend was Dutch and he introduced me to their version, which they call Dubbel Zout. It's super salty (dubbel zout means 'double salt') and I cannot get enough of it.

But then I'm one of the few Americans who seems to love black licorice and hate the red variety.

Having been an immigrant in The Netherlands, lets just say that their licorice is an acquired taste (which I myself never did, so congrats for liking that stuff).

I don't think he gave me a piece expecting me to hate it, but he was surprised how much I loved it. I think I ate his entire supply while our trip to London (where he lived) lasted.

Sounds great! Never had Dubbel Zout, but I’ll keep my eye out for it.

Oh, and I totally agree that black is better than red licorice.

I love licorice too, the Panda one here in the US is very good. It's polarizing, I don't know so many people who like it but they all really like it, and it seems independent from the other flavors they like, some of my least adventurous eaters like it, and some of those with very broad plates don't like it.
