We have chosen one of the most aromatic types of thyme, Thymbra capitata. Consumed as an infusion, it helps with coughs and soothes the throat, and has an antiseptic effect. Mixed with other herbs it is used as a tonic infusion. It is also used as an herb to add flavor and aroma to meat and poultry.

Thyme is a small, aromatic, Mediterranean bush. It belongs to the class of plants called toadstools, which, in order to survive the dry and hot Greek summers, lose or shorten their leaves to prevent water loss. This adaptive response is the production of scents and many other important protective compounds, useful not only for the plant but also for the human body. It is sought after by bees and produces an amazing honey.
