I used to think this was Chowards, but its actually C. Howard's. Wonder if the C stands for candy. Anyway, this violet mint is seriously strong smelling soap or like opening a bottle of lotion. Smells like a lavender flower. If you've never had this before you will think its weird, but its not like eating a lotion or a bar of soap. It's got a real floral taste, and i think you will either love it or hate it. I'm kind of in the middle but I can see why people will eat loads of this. Not individually wrapped, and each stick contains 15 mints.
