If it’s the brown 12% licorice root extract, it is reasonably soluble in water.

If it is really leaf and root powders, then they are not fully soluble in anything and have to be dispersed in the product.

usually the manufacturers tell you on the ingredient description or on COA

How are they dispersed in the product?

It says to disperse in glycerin

If yes, this would greatly reduce my time trying to explain things
. If not: You may really want to consider doing so, it’s very much worth it :smiley: ! I recommend ‘moitié-moitié’ (half Gruyère and half Vacherin fribourgeois). -
The usage recommended and (water soluble or oil soluble) are listed on coa or ingredient description.
