Sambó - Þristur

Bite-size milk-chocolate bars with a soft caramel centre and tiny flecks of mild liquorice. The chocolate snaps, the caramel gives, then a gentle liquorice echo arrives — more pastry-shop than salty punch. If you think you don't like liquorice, this is the one that changes minds; if you already do, welcome home.

Þristur means "three" — chocolate, caramel, liquorice — and every Icelandic household has a bag somewhere. Made by Sambó, the Icelandic liquorice makers, and individually wrapped so a bag lasts (in theory).

Good to know: 220 g bag of individually wrapped minis · milk chocolate 24%, caramel 62%, liquorice 14% · contains milk and wheat (gluten); may contain other allergens — always check the pack · keep cool; in summer we pack chocolate against the heat.

How people buy it: Icelanders abroad order 10 and 20 bags at a time (that's why those options exist). It's the top pick for our gift boxes and the sneaky favourite chopped into brownies and cookies.
