Description

A soft, fruity pastille with honey and menthol

Throaties Blackcurrant Flavour Pastilles pair a rich, fruity blackcurrant flavour with honey and a cool hint of menthol. The pastille is soft and chewy, so it melts down gradually rather than crunching, and its deep purple colour comes from vegetable carbon and anthocyanin. It's made with sugars and honey, with no added sweetener.

Why buy Throaties Blackcurrant Flavour Pastilles:

  • Rich blackcurrant flavour, with honey and a cool hint of menthol.
  • Soft and chewy, not a hard-boiled sweet.
  • No added sweetener: made with sugars and honey.
  • Coloured with vegetable carbon and anthocyanin.
  • 12 soft pastilles in each box, at 8 kcal each.

From a Devon maker with pharmacy roots

Throaties were launched in 1925 by Ernest Jackson, a company that began with a Crediton pharmacist in 1817, and they're still made in Devon, UK. These pastilles contain sulphites and bovine gelatine. See the full Throaties range.

FAQ

What is the difference between Throaties Blackcurrant and Throaties Strong Original?

Both are soft pastilles with honey and menthol. Throaties Blackcurrant has a fruity blackcurrant flavour and no added sweetener. Throaties Strong Original has a spiced flavour from aniseed, peppermint and clove oils and capsicum tincture, and also contains a sweetener (sucralose). Throaties Blackcurrant contains sulphites.

Are Throaties Blackcurrant Pastilles suitable for people with a sulphite allergy?

No. The glucose syrup in Throaties Blackcurrant Flavour Pastilles contains sulphites, so avoid them if you're allergic or sensitive to sulphites.

How many Throaties pastilles can I have a day?

The Throaties Blackcurrant pack doesn't give a daily limit, as Throaties are not medicated. Each 2.4g pastille contains 1.3g of sugars and 8 kcal, so bear that in mind if you're watching your sugar intake.
