The leaves of the real laurel are used as a seasoning ingredient in soups, stews, meat and fish dishes and as a preserving ingredient. Ours come from a farm on the south-east coast of Sardinia.

Swiss farmer Hans Peter Meier grows these herbs and spices on the Azienda Brai Loi, a farm on the south-east coast of Sardinia. The effort involved is high: the water for irrigation is pumped from the farm's own Brunnen and the work in the plantations is largely done by hand. The gentle drying process - which immediately follows the harvest - preserves the flavorful ingredients to the greatest possible extent. The result is well worth the effort, as the herbs are incredibly fragrant and therefore extremely productive. What catches the eye is the intense, fresh color and the fact that the herbs always remain recognizable. The reason: Meier sieves them before bottling, which filters out dust-fine, indefinable particles.
