Introducing Cachou Lajaunie

Cachou Lajaunie have been highly popular in France for decades. Those tiny licorice-based candies are extraordinarily strong - a result of the combination between mint extract and licorice, This makes those Cachou (in French, it sounds just like "cashew") a powerful breath-freshener. 
Cachou Lajaunie are still made in Toulouse, France, where they were invented by the pharmacist Leon Lajaunie in 1890. The trademark small yellow tin was invented by a clock-maker friend of Lajaunie, who designed it to fit in a watch-pocket.
To get out the mints, just twist the top and bottom of the mini tin until a little opening appears, and let one or two of those tiny black bit drop in your hand.
Comes in a set of 2 mini tins.

St Valentin, France

Valentine's day (St Valentin in French) is just around the corner, and a small village in the Central Region of France is getting ready: St Valentin! The origins of le village des amoureux (the lovers village) go back to the XIIth century. Valentine's Day is of course the time of year to visit this charming village and take a stroll in its Jardin des Amoureux or Lovers Garden. If you happen to be visiting France at this time of year, you might want to check it out - it's been said that Miss France would be there this week-end...
