  • Genovese Basil is associated with the area of 'Genovese' in Italy, but the species originated in areas of Asia and Africa and made its way to the Mediterranean via the ancient spice routes. The flavourful plant was introduced to the Liguria region by the Romans who enjoyed an early version of pesto as a bread spread. To this day the most prized pesto comes from this area made with this specific variety of basil. This variety of basil has a lower tendency to become bitter after cooking. The plant is also less likely to bolt, meaning it is less likely to flower quickly in hot weather. It has large soft bright green and mildly crinkled leaves
    • Tasting note: Aromatic & minty
  • Coriander is one of the oldest herbs and spices on record. Coriander was mentioned in the Bible, and the seeds have been found in ruins dating back to 5000 B.C. It can refer to both an herb and a spice. Although the term coriander is used in much of the world in reference to both cilantro leaves and seeds, in the Americas, it generally refers to the dried cilantro seeds which are used as a spice both in whole form and ground. Cilantro leaves and coriander seeds taste very different and cannot be substituted for each other in recipes. It's a member of the parsley (Apiaceae ) family and an annual plant that grows on slender green stems. The plant can grow up to 60cm tall and the leaves resemble parsley leaves. When coriander flowers, it produces white flowers, with a hint of purple, and round, light brown seeds. These seeds can be harvested and used as spices. Coriander grows as a native plant around the world, including Europe, Asia, Africa and in the Americas
    • Tasting note: Citrus & spice
  • English Thyme ia a short, compact, aromatic herb that forms attractive, tiny lavender flowers which attract bees, and is known to deter cabbage worms. English thyme loves full sun and well-drained soil and will even tolerate poor soils. Native to the Mediterranean region, thyme has been cherished for its culinary, medicinal, and aromatic properties for millennia. Ancient Egyptians used thyme in their embalming process, while the Greeks burned it as incense in temples, believing it to be a source of courage. Romans also valued thyme, using it to purify their homes and adding it to their baths for its refreshing scent
