WHAT’S ALL THIS ABOUT SALTY LICORICE (AND ICE CREAM TOO)?

Finland is famous for Salmiakki (Salty Licorice), a confectionary and contradictory treat that is salty, chewy and definitely habit forming! Salmiakki comes in different ranges of salt (from mild to extra salty) and can be eaten as soft chewy pieces or hard candies. And just when you think you couldn’t try anything more different, it’s also available as ice cream.

Any way you try it…it tastes delicious! Det smakar utsökt! Se maistuu herkulliselta! Please share the name of your favorite brand of Salmiakki in the comments. Tack!

What a lovely way to start the day...with a cup of Swedish coffee in a mug of Finnish inspiration!

Finn River Farm and Cidery in Chimacum WA. Such a wonderful place. Finn seems very Finnish at least a bit Nordic😊🇫🇮

Do you have a favorite forest? Can you imagine embracing the silence, the peace and quiet of hearing the sounds of the wind blowing through the trees? Being surrounded by the sounds of nature may take you back to the same places your ancestors were long ago.

With more than 40 national parks and hundreds of other nature preserves, Finland's forests can offer something for everyone! Join us on the next SFHS Heritage Tour to Finland - planned for summer of 2027 to find your new favorite forest.
