History

Plant & perfume

All these plants clearly recall the fragrances of the south, of Provence. They smell of the sun and their essential oils develop particularly well in this terroir. For example, thyme from Provence is naturally rich in carvacrol (greater than 15%); this richness is particularly due to the terroir and Provençal climate.

Grown in the open field naturally, without any additional product or chemical treatment, our blend of organic herbs in pods is a real concentrate of Provence! All that's missing is the sun and the song of the cicadas, which we prefer not to put in a pod.

Herbes de Provence go very well with meats cooked in the oven or stewed, such as veal, lamb, pork or rabbit.

Finally the classics such as white fish en papillote, spreads, pizza or a tian of Provençal vegetables.

Origins

A long journey

Savory, Oregano, Thyme and Rosemary are all plants native to the Mediterranean region and Provence. They have long been part of the plants that were picked in the scrubland. Basil comes to us from elsewhere, it is from India. It appeared in the 15th century in Italy after traveling through the Middle East and the Mediterranean. It established itself in France at the beginning of the 16th century.

Our Herbes de Provence, on the other hand, have made a very short journey: from Provence to our premises in Ain. The majority of Provence herbs that we find do not come from Provence, they are imported from elsewhere. It seemed obvious and natural to us to select our Herbes de Provence in Provence.
