If you mean sweet licorice, then no: Salt/salmiac licorice is to licorice as dolphins are to fish. Salmiac is unlike anything else you ever had, the first time you will hate it and question why someone would do something as stupid to a reasonable treat as licorice; and licorice will be reasonable to everyone in comparison, even of you did not like it before.

You do get used to it though and I somehow somewhat dig it by now.
