Originating from the Mediterranean, thyme was bought to New Zealand during the gold rush of the 1800s by miners who used the herb for medicinal purposes. The hot, dry summers and freezing winters of Central Otago have enabled wild thyme to flourish. The closer you get to the lilac-coloured haze covering the hills, the more intense the beautiful aroma of thyme’s powerful essential oils.

You will receive your jar safely packaged in recycled and reused cardboard, or if this is a sweet treat for someone, please let us know and we will do our best to make it look special. Handwritten notes can be added too.
