Thyme Chopped and Dried - Selected for Quality What is Thyme? Thyme is a robust, shrubby herb with trailing green-grey leaves and an intense aroma and flavour. This herb is native to the western Mediterranean, and it extends to drier, sunnier climates around Western Asia and southern Europe. Where does Thyme Come From? Our Thyme is sourced from Egypt. Although there are more than sixty types of Thyme, Thymus vulgaris, or Garden Thyme, is the most common culinary species. It is also the type widely used in historical recipes and remedies, especially in and around ancient Greece, Rome, and Egypt. Thyme adds instant flavour to cooking, but it can also offer health benefits when consumed in fresh or dried form, or when it is steeped to make tea.
