Does this candy expire? I am wanting to stock up for the office but cannot find an expiration date anywhere to see if it is worth it.

Not sure about an expiration date. But this candy is so delicious, it won't be around long enough to expire. Nothing in it will spoil. Since it is a hard candy, just keep it in a cool dry place, and it should be fine for a long time.

Black Licorice Flavor through and through!

For the minority of us who LOVE the flavor of Anise, or black licorice - this is delicious. It is a hard candy; don't expect something chewy, but the flavor is great...Not at all the "molasses" stuff that they try to pass-off as Black Licorice flavor. If I had any criticism at all I'd say that the candies are to large - Half-size would be ideal, in my opinion.
