Although it's origins are a mystery, Peppermint Mentha x piperita (Lamiaceae) is a flowering perennial that is native to Europe--dried leaves were found in Egyptian pyramids dating from around 1000 BCE. Peppermint is a natural hybrid of Spearmint and Watermint. It is used for its healthful properties and has many applications in food--the oil of peppermint offers its cool, refreshing flavor and unmistakable aroma to a wide variety of foods and beverages. Our peppermint leaves are organically cultivated in the United States.
