Description

Transport your senses to the sun-drenched hillsides of North Africa with Algerian Fruity Mint, a rare and captivating variety of spearmint known for its sweet, rounded flavour and distinctive fruity undertones. Hailing from Algeria’s Mediterranean regions, this mint offers a gentler take on traditional spearmint, with low menthol content that allows its mellow, almost melon-like notes to shine—making it especially suitable for salads, cooling drinks, and subtle herbal infusions.

Its bright green, slightly crinkled leaves are aromatic without overwhelming, making this mint a favourite for those who prefer a softer, sweeter flavour profile. It blends beautifully into iced teas, lemonades, fruit platters, couscous dishes, and summer cocktails, where its fruity lift enhances without overpowering.

Though still relatively rare in cultivation, Algerian Fruity Mint is easy to grow in full sun or partial shade, thriving in containers or herb beds with well-drained soil. Its attractive growth habit, delicate scent, and culinary versatility make it a standout addition to any herb collection—especially for those looking to explore the diverse mint traditions of the Mediterranean basin.

A mint with exotic roots and a gentle voice, Algerian Fruity Mint invites you to taste mint in a new way: softer, sweeter, and full of aromatic charm.
