Sweet Marjoram, 14g

Sweet Marjoram, 14g

Sweet Marjoram by Daphnis and Chloe is prized for its ability to retain full aroma and flavour after drying. The whole leaves are sourced in small quantities from organic farms in Crete and Central Greece, where the herb is harvested by hand and naturally air-dried. Mild, gently sweet, and subtly floral in taste, marjoram is a close relative of oregano, but softer and more delicate. It is well suited for seasoning vegetables, legumes, soups, and stuffings, and adds a fresh, aromatic note to salads, hummus, and roasted dishes. It can also be enjoyed as a pleasant, mild herbal tea.

Product details

Sweet marjoram (Origanum majorana) is a traditional Mediterranean herb with a long culinary history, valued for its gentle, well-balanced aroma. Compared to oregano, it is softer, slightly sweet, and subtly floral, making it especially versatile in the kitchen. Its delicate character pairs well with vegetables, legumes, and lighter dishes without overpowering other ingredients. Beyond cooking, marjoram is also enjoyed as a mild and pleasant herbal infusion.

The sweet marjoram by Daphnis and Chloe is sourced from small organic farms in Crete and Central Greece. It is harvested by hand at the beginning of summer, when the leaves reach optimal aromatic maturity. After harvest, the herb is naturally air-dried and carefully processed by hand. This slow and attentive method preserves the structure, fragrance, and flavour of the whole leaves and results in limited quantities each year.
