I really enjoy licorice in real life, but this tea is just too sickly sweet for me. That being said, It is a pretty solid choice for those who like licorice root teas. You can also taste some other spices like cinnamon, orange, clove, lemon, maybe nutmeg or cardamom, ginger, and something else (citrus rind?)

Modern licorice is actually flavored with anise rather than licorice. I’ve found that I definitely prefer the taste of anise. Most people seem to have a definite preference for one or the other.
I really enjoy licorice pipes and “made with real licorice” things, although I definitely enjoy anise as well. I usually don’t like licorice root or cinnamon bark in tea because I find they has this weird sickly sweet flavour I associate with cough syrup and stevia.

I know what you mean. Licorice root and stevia bother me the same way. I still enjoy cinnamon bark, it can be really sweet, but it reminds me more of honey.
