Peppermint (fresh cut)
$5.00Price
Peppermint (Mentha × piperita) is a strongly aromatic, fresh-cut perennial herb known for its intense, cooling menthol punch and sharp, peppery undertones. The taste is bold, pungent, and sharp. Unlike the softer, sweeter taste of spearmint, peppermint dominates the palate with a fiery, pepper-like bite followed by a long-lasting, icy cooling sensation.
