Native Thyme, also known as Cut-leaf Mint Bush, is an aromatic shrub rich in essential oils, emitting a minty fragrance when crushed or rubbed. Once used as a medicinal herb, it is now prized for its culinary applications and use in herbal teas. Native Thyme offers a more complex flavour profile than traditional Mentha mints, with subtle hints of pepper and earthy undertones, making it a versatile and flavorful addition to any kitchen.
