Organic dried English lavender buds and flowers.
 
Our 'Ellagance Purple' lavender is a premier choice for the kitchen. Unlike some pungent ornamental or French varieties that can taste soapy, English lavender has a subtle sweetness and a milder, delicately floral flavor profile. Our dried buds and flowers can be infused into sugars, honey, and syrups. They add a sophisticated floral note to shortbreads, cakes, infused ice creams, and lemon tarts. In beverages, the dried lavender is ideal for steeping into soothing herbal teas, crafting lavender lemonades, or adding a aromatic twist to craft cocktails like a gin and tonic. Dried lavender is a component of traditional French Herbes de Provence blends, it can be used sparingly to flavor vinegars, complex salad dressings, and roasted meats.
 
Dried English lavender has medicinal and wellness uses.  The therapeutic value of 'Ellagance Purple' lies heavily in its high concentration of natural antioxidants and volatile essential oils located within the flower buds.
 
We grow our lavender outdoors in the full sun and in rich organic soil.  It is certified organic by OCIA and the Real Organic Project.
