King Peppermints

King is a renowned Dutch brand of peppermints that has been a household name in the Netherlands for over a century. The brand's history dates back to 1922 when it was launched by the Tuerler family in Sneek. The name 'King' was chosen as an acronym for 'Kwaliteit in goedheid' (Quality in goodness).

Historically, the brand was part of the Taminiau family businesses before being acquired by various confectionery groups. Today, it is part of the extensive portfolio of Cloetta, a leading confectionery company in Northern Europe. King peppermints are primarily manufactured in the Netherlands, maintaining their heritage as a classic Dutch treat known for their distinctive extra-strong minty flavor and round white tablet shape.
