Description

A soft pastille with a strong, warming flavour

Throaties Strong Original is the classic of the range: a soft, chewy pastille with a bold, herbal character. Honey and menthol give it the familiar Throaties taste, while aniseed, clove and peppermint oils and a touch of capsicum add the depth and warmth behind the Strong Original name. Because it's soft rather than hard-boiled, it melts down slowly instead of cracking or crunching.

What makes Throaties Strong Original different:

  • Soft and chewy, rather than a hard-boiled sweet.
  • Honey and menthol, the pairing at the heart of every Throaties pastille.
  • A spiced, herbal depth from aniseed, clove and peppermint oils with a hint of capsicum.
  • 8 kcal a pastille, sweetened with sugars and sucralose.
  • A handy box of 12, easy to keep in a bag or coat pocket.

FAQ

Are Throaties lozenges or pastilles?

Throaties are soft pastilles, with a softer, chewier texture than a hard lozenge. They're sugar confectionery flavoured with honey and menthol, not a licensed medicine. If you're looking for a medicated lozenge or spray, see our sore throat range or ask one of our pharmacists.

Are Throaties Strong Original Pastilles suitable for vegetarians?

No. Throaties Strong Original Pastilles contain bovine gelatine, so they aren't suitable for vegetarians or vegans.

Do Throaties Strong Original Pastilles contain sugar?

Yes. They're made with glucose syrup, sugar, dextrose and honey, plus a sweetener (sucralose). Each 2.4g pastille contains 1.3g of sugars and 8 kcal.

Why are Throaties Strong Original called "strong"?

It refers to the flavour. As well as honey and menthol, the Strong Original recipe includes aniseed oil, peppermint oil, clove oil and capsicum tincture, giving a more spiced flavour than a plain menthol pastille.
