About this product
After a long dinner, a dropper of this stirred into warm water: cold at the first taste, then a slow, spreading warmth, the way real peppermint always behaves.
It is true peppermint, Mentha × piperita, grown in Mitcham, England, the strain long prized above all others for the purity and strength of its menthol. Extracted at a 1:4 ratio in 50% alcohol, it carries the leaf's oil at real strength rather than as a diluted echo.
Peppermint grew in the physic gardens of medieval monasteries, where herbalist monks kept it among the plants worth a garden bed of its own, and it has been an after-dinner herb ever since, a habit handed down largely unchanged to this bottle.
Details
- Botanical name: Mentha × piperita
- Grown in: Mitcham, England
- Extract: 1:4 in 50% alcohol by volume
- Size: 50 ml
How to use
Stir a dropper into warm water after eating, whenever you want a little comfort after a meal. It can make heartburn worse for some people. It makes no medical claim, and persistent stomach trouble deserves a doctor's attention rather than a dropper. Keep it out of reach of children.
Cold first, then warm: an old garden herb for the end of the meal.
