Hyssop

Hyssop Herb (Hyssopus officinalis)

Hyssop is an evergreen perennial in the mint (Lamiaceae) family native to southern Europe, where it has been valued for centuries in herbal traditions, culinary applications, and folklore. Revered as a "holy herb" in biblical and European traditions, hyssop was historically associated with purification and protection and was often hung in homes or planted near graves. Its aromatic, mint-like flavor makes it a unique addition to teas, syrups, liqueurs, and culinary dishes when used sparingly.
