It becomes particularly aromatic when it is processed in dried form, as here. This brings out its essential oils and powerful, slightly spicy aroma particularly well. Our organic oregano comes from the variety Origanum vulgare ssp. hirtum, which is native to the Mediterranean region. Its taste is reminiscent of a mixture of thyme and marjoram, but is more bitter and intense.
