Also known as Italian basil or Genovese basil, the herb SWEET BASIL belongs to the mint family. While very popular in Italian cooking, it came from India originally. Dried basil is superior because herbs can be irradiated, losing nutritional value.
The Spice Lab’s Sweet Basil comes from Egypt, Turkey and the USA, and is processed in the USA.
