The Original Dr Doolittle's Finest Pastilles

Once upon a time... that’s how all fairy tales begin – and so does our story ...at the beginning of the 20th century.
Dr. Doolittle, the man who invented our soft and chewable pastilles, lived in a small town in the North of England. He was a simple chemist and he only left his beloved shop to sleep and eat in his little one-roomed flat above the shop.
Once a week – and sometimes on Sundays – he pursued his hobby. He was the organist for the local church choir. He himself had no talent for singing; but he was all the more mindful and attentive with regard to his friends’ singing voices.
If they became hoarse from all the singing or had a “lump” in their throats, he suffered with them. There had to be something that would make the throat and vocal chords supple and soft, something to “lubricate” them.
This is how the idea arose to find a natural throat pastille as a remedy for this problem.
It was the moment when Dr. Doolittle’s Finest Pastilles were born. Obsessed by this thought he started to work day and night in his little herb kitchen and so he succeeded to bring the first sample pastilles to the next choir rehearsal. The excellent result encouraged him to continue to refine the recipe.

The final result is our soothing and savoury Dr. Doolittle’s Finest Pastilles which we supply today in a variety of flavours and which have been highly appreciated by a lot of loyal customers.
