Argh, licorice! I need to stop giving it a chance. Listen, I love teas that help settle the stomach. And I’m happy that this tea still does that. But the licorice aftertaste… [shudder]. The flavors are nice enough as I’m sipping, it’s the lingering taste that makes the experience as a whole unpleasant. I’m just not sure why the licorice is needed here (does anyone even actively like licorice?). Anyway, I will continue to drink straight fennel or mint tea for now.

Ironically, the licorice root is included because it’s actually used as an herbal remedy for upset stomachs, indigestion, and heartburn ;)
Blergh, good to know! Hopefully it’s not the only ingredient in this tea solving my tummy trouble :|
I like licorice things in general, but I agree that licorice root can be very unpleasant if it’s too strong. It has a very cloying quality to me.
