Frontier Co-op Peppermint Leaf (Mentha x piperita) is a flowering perennial that is native to Europe and a hybrid species, a combination of spearmint and water mint. Frontier Co-op peppermint leaf is pleasantly aromatic with a cooling, refreshing scent. It's an excellent addition to teas and just about anything else for a fresh, minty flavor. It is commonly used in cooking and mint teas. The high desert region of the Pacific Northwest is a prime location for growing natural herbs like peppermint. We personally meet with growers whenever possible to foster quality botanicals and sound social and environmental practices.
