A member of the mint family, Oregano is a flowering plant native to the Mediterranean region. Its flavor is bold and peppery. The leaves contain a high concentration of beneficial essential oils, particularly carvacrol and thymol, which are responsible for many of its health benefits, including its potent antioxidant and antibacterial properties.
Oregano is a staple herb in Mediterranean cuisine, but it is also a potent medicinal plant. Its warming and pungent properties are used in traditional medicine to support respiratory health, acting as an expectorant to clear coughs. It is also a powerful antimicrobial and is used to aid digestion and relieve menstrual cramps.
We source aromatic, high-quality oregano leaves from cultivators who understand the importance of harvesting at the right time to maximize the essential oil content.
The leaves are carefully dried and then crumbled or ground to preserve their robust flavor and fragrance.
