Authentic Mediterranean Flavor!

Thyme is a highly popular herb in Greece. Its taste and aroma perfectly embody the essence of Greek and Cretan cuisine!

More than just an amazing flavor!

Beyond its delicious taste, thyme was historically seen as a symbol of courage and was famous for its aphrodisiac qualities. In the 16th century, women would serve their loved ones thyme soups and beer as a romantic stimulant. At the same time, crushed thyme leaves were used to fill pillows to ease melancholy and soothe patients.

Today, thyme is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, mainly for its antibacterial and antiseptic properties. It’s also rich in vitamin K, manganese, calcium, and iron.

Bring a Greek touch to your meals!

Thyme is an incredible herb that, alongside its health benefits, has been flavoring Greek cuisine since ancient times. While it can substitute oregano in various dishes, combining the two creates an unforgettable taste!

We recommend trying thyme in your salads, especially when paired with olive oil. Add some finely chopped leaves to your next pasta sauce—you’ll love it! It also pairs beautifully with fish, meats, and poultry, and is perfect for seasoning marinades.

Add thyme just a few minutes before serving or immediately after turning off the heat. When baking bread, try mixing in some dried thyme leaves into the dough.

Final tip: If you want to replace fresh thyme with dried, use only one-third of the fresh thyme amount since dried thyme has a much stronger flavor!
