Product details

These bay leaves from Daphnis and Chloe are harvested by hand from mature Laurus nobilis trees in the southern Mediterranean—a region where the aromatic herb has been treasured since ancient times, both as a culinary staple and in mythology.

To preserve their delicate aromatic complexity, the leaves are dried naturally in the shade, allowing essential oils with hints of cinnamon and nutmeg to fully develop. This traditional process is carried out without industrial machinery and relies on close collaboration with small-scale growers.

Only fully grown leaves at peak maturity are selected, ensuring a bold yet balanced flavor that supports and elevates other ingredients. Thanks to this careful approach, the quiet elegance of true bay is captured in its purest form.

Ingredients

100% dried bay leaves from Greece.
