Mentha Balsamea
Peppermint
Peppermint – Mentha Balsamea is a naturally occurring hybrid of watermint and spearmint. This is a native European species and is one of the oldest known plants used for herbal tea, cooking and medicinally.
Uplifting without caffeine, peppermint aids digestion and sweetens the breath.
Grown in the Beira Baixa Province of Portugal - set between Tejo Nature Park and UNESCO recognised Naturetejo Geopark.
In this beautiful natural area, on a small, sustainable organic farm – this stunning peppermint is grown with love and care.
Just as terroir - the land and individual environment characteristic that makes each field and farm unique - plays an important part in the flavour of tea, or wine, so it does for herbs.
This mint is enhanced by the rich biodiversity in which it grows and sweetened by the abundance of sunshine.
