Peppermint Organic - 40 gr

Peppermint or Mentha Piperita is within the large family of Mint, the species with the most pronounced mint flavor. Did you know that this mint species is a true cultivated plant (crossing of different mint species) and does not occur in the wild ? Most peppermint on the (organic) market comes from non-European countries. However, we prefer the slightly more expensive and quality peppermint from Germany or Austria.
