His name is Johan Bulow, and today you can buy Lakrids by Johan Bulow in gourmet shops in Denmark, a few places in New York and London, and you can also find his own shops in Tivoli and Magasin. Johan Bulow has from the beginning been trying to raise awareness of liqourice. Not only for sweets, but also as a gourmet experience. With the new shop – placed where the whole world meet, the ambition of spreading his love for liquorice worldwide should be within reach. The shop has the full range - both sweet and salt liqourice, liqourice coated in chocolate, liqurorice syrup and powder, last but not least the sticks as the entire adventure began with. We look forward to give you a taste of the black magic. But beware. It can be highly addictive.
