Wild Bergamot

$12.00

Dried Wild Bergamot, also known as Monarda fistulosa (pale pink) and Monarda media (soft purple), has a spicy, almost oregano-like flavour that works great in teas, adds a citrus like flavour when used in place of hops, or works great as a stand-in for other herbs when cooking. Monarda is a prolific family of plants known as bee balm, many people are familiar with the Scarlet Bee Balm as it is popular perennial. The herb is best used in moderation as too much leaf can cause some upset.  Are you a chef or brewer? Email Forbes@wildfoods.ca for bulk pricing
