The tea brewed from licorice root has a naturally sweet taste, often described as reminiscent of anise or fennel, with a hint of earthiness and a subtle, warming spice. Its aroma is warm and slightly woody, with a sweet herbal scent that is calming and soothing.
In gin production, licorice root adds a subtle sweetness and a complex depth of flavor, complementing the juniper and other botanicals. 
Culinarily, licorice root is used as a natural sweetener and flavor enhancer in various dishes and beverages. It can be infused into syrups, used in baking for its aromatic qualities, and even incorporated into savory dishes for a unique twist.
Medicinally, licorice root is renowned for its numerous health benefits. It has been traditionally used to soothe sore throats and coughs due to its demulcent properties, which help coat and relieve irritation in the throat. Additionally, licorice root is known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, supporting digestive health, and potentially aiding in managing symptoms of conditions like gastritis and acid reflux. However, it's important to note that excessive consumption of licorice root can lead to health risks, particularly for those with certain medical conditions such as high blood pressure or during pregnancy, so moderation is advised in its use.
