According to Ancient Greek mythology, it was Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, who created oregano as a symbol of joy and harmony. The ancient Greeks believed the herb carried divine energy - a gift from the gods meant to bring happiness and vitality to those who used it. Cherished for centuries, oregano played an essential role in both culinary and medicinal traditions, prized for its aroma, flavor, and healing qualities. Today, oregano remains one of Greece’s most beloved and versatile herbs. A classic Greek salad (“horiatiki”) would be unthinkable without its fragrant touch, just as no grilled fish, gyros, or roasted meat feels complete without a generous sprinkle of this aromatic treasure.
Our organic oregano is grown in the pristine mountain air of Mount Olympus, where mineral-rich soil and pure breezes infuse the leaves with exceptional potency. Each stem is handpicked at its aromatic peak, then gently dried to preserve its vibrant color, captivating aroma, and complex flavor. The result is a truly authentic Greek herb - a timeless ingredient that connects ancient tradition to the modern table.
