essential oil

Oregano is a member of the mint family, making it a cousin to rosemary, thyme and many other common culinary herbs. Our essential oil is made from wild oregano (Origanum vulgare), a species revered throughout the Mediterranean as a symbol of health and happiness. In fact, the herb gets its common name from the Greek oros meaning "mountain" and ganos meaning "joy" and translates to "joy of the mountain.”

The essential oil of oregano is abundant in antioxidant phenols and other compounds, most notably carvacrol and thymol. The oil also contains rosmarinic acid, naringin and a variety of terpenes.
