Herb · Middle Eastern · Mediterranean · Indian
Menthol provides a sharp cooling sensation, balanced by subtle notes from the herbal and citrus aroma families. The leaves possess a light, crisp texture with low values across the sweet, sour, and umami axes. This herb functions as a clean, aromatic accent common in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Indian culinary traditions.
