Aromatic wild Greek bay leaves hand-collected from the slopes of Mount Taygetos in southern Greece.

Our Wild Greek Bay Leaves are hand-collected from the sun-drenched landscapes of southern Greece, where the Mediterranean climate, mountain air, and rocky terrain help create herbs with exceptional aroma, flavor, and character. Fragrant, earthy, and gently floral, bay leaves are a classic pantry staple for Greek and Mediterranean cooking.

Carefully dried and packaged to preserve their natural aroma and traditional qualities, these bay leaves bring slow-building herbal depth to soups, stews, sauces, braises, beans, lentils, rice dishes, roasted meats, and marinades. Add whole leaves while cooking, then remove before serving.
