Wild thyme is a dwarf shrub with a strong aromatic scent that thrives particularly well on the rocky coastal landscapes of Greece. Its flowers are quite different from what is commonly associated with thyme. Floral and slightly spicy, they are a perfect alternative to oregano. They are simply rubbed between the fingers immediately before seasoning and are an excellent accompaniment to meat, grilled vegetables and cooked fruit. They are also suitable as an ingredient in your own herbal tea blends and as a spice in marinades.

Daphnis and Chloenamed after the late antique novel of the same name, is a company founded in Athens in 2013 that is entirely dedicated to the flavorful herbs and spices of the Greek peninsula. Daphnis and Chloe always pays attention to the mostly essential ingredients, whose content and intensity in the respective plants are largely determined by the sun, the soil and the sea. The geographical and microclimatic diversity of the Greek mountains and islands provides the variety from which Daphnis and Chloe carefully selects the locations where each plant naturally thrives best. Hand-picked and carefully packaged, these plants are delivered to the customer as they have grown naturally and have been gently dried after harvesting. Word of the exceptional quality of the herbs and spices from Daphnis and Chloe has long since spread to the professional catering trade.
