Organic peppermint powder, ground

Product description

Organic peppermint is a highly aromatic culinary herb from certified organic farming in Germany and Albania. The finely ground leaves produce an even green peppermint powder with a clear, fresh mint note.

Thanks to the fine grind, the aroma of the organic peppermint disperses very evenly in food and drinks. Biova relies on carefully selected raw materials and gentle processing to preserve the natural mint aroma as much as possible.

In the kitchen, this mint spice is extremely versatile – from teas and smoothies to desserts and savoury dishes. This way you always have organic peppermint to hand to add a cool, minty freshness to your recipes.

Origin

The mint for this Biova product comes from selected organic growing regions in Germany and Albania. The temperate to continental climate with sufficient sunshine promotes the development of essential oils and creates a well-balanced aroma profile.

Cultivation / production / harvest

The peppermint is grown according to organic standards without synthetic crop protection agents. It is usually harvested shortly before flowering, then the leaves are gently dried and ground into a fine powder before Biova fills and quality-checks the product.

Characteristics

In its ground form, the peppermint powder is ready to use and easy to dose precisely. Compared with cut herb, it works more easily into doughs, creams or liquid preparations and ensures a consistently even flavour intensity.

Differences in origin and processing

German peppermint often tastes mild and well balanced, while Albanian qualities tend to be more robust. Biova combines both origins and grinds them uniformly to create a stable, natural overall aroma with a fresh green colour.

Taste & aroma

On the nose, the peppermint powder is fresh, cool and distinctly minty with a clear menthol note. On the palate it is intense but not overpowering, making it suitable for both sweet and savoury creations.

Suggested uses

• As a tea spice or addition to herbal and fruit teas for a refreshing mint note.
