Tasting Notes
Counter-intuitively, the menthol oils infuse more easily from the dried leaf, giving a brighter, cleaner flavour than fresh mint.
Origin & Craft
The belief in doing things well has persevered at Tregothnan; the Estate has stayed within the same family since 1335.
At the heart of the Estate is the private walled Botanic Garden. Tregothnan is passionate about growing and collecting plants, including many rare specimens.
Quantity
It is quite strong and you really only need a tiny pinch for a robust flavour. We recommend 0.5g per 150ml of water.
Temperature
For the optimum infusion use 100°C (212°F) water.
Time
Infuse for 30 - 60 seconds, tasting regularly.
