Great Mixology Cocktail Herbs - Seed kit gift box

The fresher they are, the better the natural aroma. We therefore recommend that you grow the most important herbs yourself.

This seed kit contains 6 popular herb varieties:

• Peppermint (Mentha piperita)
  Peppermint is an old, traditional herb-, tea-, and medicinal plant with refreshing aroma.
• Sweet basil 'Genovese' (Ocimum basilicum)
  'Genovese' is the classic, Italian basil variety, with large, slightly tangy tasting leaves, which put pesto on the culinary world map. It is also ideal for infusing caprese salads.
• Cilantro, Leaf coriander, Chinese parsley (Coriandrum sativum)
  Cilantro is also nicknamed 'the parsley' of Mexican and Asian cooking. Always add the freshly chopped leaves just before serving the food.
• Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis)
  Rosemary is probably among the most important Mediterranean kitchen herbs and tastes delightful in combination with potatoes, red meat and courgettes. It is also a uniquely scented old medicinal plant, which can act as a natural pesticide.
• Thym (Thymus vulgaris)
  The characteristic flavour of thyme works really well for seasoning stews, soups, fish and meat dishes. Prepared as a tea infusion, it also helps to relieve diseases of the respiratory tract.
• Paracress, Jambú (Spilanthes oleracea)
  The leaves of the Peruvian paracress produce an unusually prickling spiciness similar to the Szechuan pepper.

The seeds of each variety are packaged in a separate sachet.

The seed sachets and detailed growing instructions in German and English are packed in a beautiful gift box - a great, sustainable gift for the garden. Any plant lover will be pleased.
