Allens Throaties Sticks 50g

Allen’s Throaties Sticks 50g

Throaties are the Aussie lolly every kid was slightly suspicious of and every adult secretly loved. Made by Allen’s, these small compressed-sugar sticks pack a proper hit of menthol and eucalyptus in a satisfyingly old-school lozenge format. They sit in the same shelf neighbourhood as Anticol and other classic Aussie menthol lollies, but Throaties are a confectionery treat rather than a medicinal product — no therapeutic claims, just a sharp, cooling sweet that clears your nose, pairs beautifully with a hot coffee and takes a decent chunk of any Aussie lolly-jar memory lane. This 50g stick pack is the classic share size.

What’s in the 50g Pack

The 50g stick pack contains roughly 10-12 individual Throaties, each a small chalky-compressed sugar lolly with a distinctive dark edge. The stick format — rolled paper tube — slips neatly into a glovebox, handbag or desk drawer, which is exactly where most Throaties fans keep one going. The lollies are individually dispensed from the end of the tube.

Taste & Texture

The flavour leads with a strong menthol-eucalyptus hit that genuinely clears your sinuses, followed by a soft herbal sweetness with faint liquorice-anise notes on the finish. Texture is compressed sugar — not a boiled hard candy — so the lolly slowly crumbles and melts rather than surviving for twenty minutes. For a lozenge-style lolly, they go down quicker and feel cleaner in the mouth than most alternatives.

Perfect For

• Cold, flu and dry-throat days: the classic use case — though note this is a lolly, not a medicine.
• Long drives: a steady menthol lift that keeps you alert without caffeine.
• After-coffee palate cleanser: cuts through espresso bitterness in seconds.
• Retro lolly hampers: pairs with old fashion lollies for a nostalgia gift pack.
