  • June 2017

As we prepare for the opening of the Taste Pépinière 2017, here’s a look back over the highlights from 2016. Over the 5-month period, Darégal worked hand in hand with nature:

 

45 varieties were discovered:

  • 20 varieties for our collections (Basil, Mint, Chilli)
  • 4 wild herbs
  • 13 exotic varieties
  • 8 culinary herbs for infusion

You tasted them, enjoyed them and rated them!

 

Here are the Top Varieties from the Taste Pépinière 2016 by Darégal:

  • Nasturtium, a small, edible flower with subtle notes of cucumber and pepper.
  • Verbena, highly appreciated for its light citrus notes, it’s a classic for infusions!
  • Lemon Basil will delight your taste buds with its refreshing citrus flavours and subtle green, fruity notes.
  • Enjoy the refreshing flavours of Peppermint with its delicate notes of eucalyptus and pine sap.
  • And lastly Tulbaghia, a bulbous plant which is very slightly spicy with its surprising notes of garlic.
