Our flowering hyssop thyme is a very special herb, 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 has a beautiful floral, herbaceous flavor and aroma. Use it in place of regular thyme with roasted chicken, grilled vegetables, and tomato sauces.

United StatesLove the flavor has a nice zaatar ish vibe . My only issue is that there are so many little branches in the bottle it’s a little off putting in food
United StatesI love all the spices I have purchased from Burlap and Barrel. And there are still more I want to try. I want my entire spice cabinet to be filled with Burlap and Barrel. Other brands don’t compare. I do a lot of cooking and use thyme a lot. It’s the best!
United StatesLove the spices from here!
United StatesBetter that the run of the mill.
United StatesWho knew dried thyme could be as flavorful as fresh? Burlap & Barrel does it again.
