"I was shocked to see how vibrant these little leaves looked when I opened the container and pleasantly surprised by their powerful aroma." Food & Wine
Our Flowering Hyssop Thyme is a very special herb that's only grown in the Middle East, where it is the primary ingredient in the za'atar spice blend (sometimes spelled zaatar, za'tar or zatar), along with sumac and sesame seeds. It has an ancient history of culinary and medicinal usage, and it has a beautiful floral, herbaceous flavor and aroma. Use it in place of regular thyme with roasted chicken, grilled vegetables and tomato sauces.

United StatesThis thyme is so incredibly floral and adds so much to everything you put it in
United StatesIt has a wonderful fragrance every time I open the jar. Perfect for pasta dishes, meats (fish, poultry, pork, beef, etc), soups, and stews. Also, beware the lack of a shaker lid. Opened it the first time and dumped way too much into the pan. A little goes a long way!
United StatesI have acquired many spices from Burlap & Barrel. All are of highest quality and have not disappointed. Burlap & Barrel has allowed me to explore use of spices not available locally. I appreciate the added complexity these spices add to my culinary experience!
United StatesThis is amazing. The best Thyme I’ve ever tasted.
United StatesI could smell the difference as soon as I opened the jar, and I notice the added flavor in my cooking.
