About Háls
Háls is the throat sweet, sold in menthol, lemon and paló varieties alongside Icelandic moss tablets and a liquorice-and-chilli boiled sweet. It came to Nói Síríus at the end of 1995 with the purchase of Opal, as did Trítlar, and the company markets it on the straightforward promise in its name: háls is Icelandic for throat, and the sweet is meant to sit well in one.
