HISTORY AND ORIGIN
Peppermint has one of the richest histories of all aromatic plants. Archaeological discoveries show its use since ancient times in Egypt, Greece, Rome, China, and Japan. According to Greek myth, the nymph Mentha was transformed into a plant by Persephone in a jealous rage — and thus one of the world's most beloved herbs was born. According to Pliny, mint was used to crown Greeks and Romans during festivities. 🌺
