“The beauty of the mountains”

Did you know that the English equivalent of“oregano” means“the beauty of the mountains” in ancient Greek? That’s because the oregano grows on the high hillsides of Greece and adorns them with the beauty of its pinkish-red flowers. The ancient Greeks dedicated the plant to the goddess Aphrodite, who was believed to be its creator.

In Estonian folklore, oregano also has magical powers, symbolising good luck, love and femininity, among other things.

An ancient herb

Oregano has also been used in traditional medicine for centuries, in addition to its culinary uses. It has been used to treat colds, bacterial and viral infections as well as digestive issues. Dried oregano can be used to make an effective herbal tea or broth, which is also beneficial in fighting streptococcus bacteria.
