Tópas Sykurlaus (Sugar-free Menthol Pastilles)

Tópas is one of Iceland's most iconic confectionery brands, instantly recognizable by its distinct menthol and eucalyptus flavor profile. Originally launched in the early 20th century as a medicinal lozenge, it evolved into a beloved national treat. This specific green packaging indicates the 'Sykurlaus' or sugar-free variant, which maintains the classic cooling herbal taste without the added sugar.

Today, the brand is produced by Nói Síríus, the largest chocolate and sweets manufacturer in Iceland. While Nói Síríus has deep roots in Icelandic history dating back to 1920, the company recently underwent a significant change in ownership. In 2021, the Norwegian conglomerate Orkla acquired Nói Síríus, bringing the brand under its vast portfolio of Nordic consumer goods. Despite the international ownership, production remains centered at the Nói Síríus factory in Reykjavík, ensuring the traditional Icelandic recipe and quality are preserved.
