The word mint comes from Greek mythology and the story of a nymph named Mynthe who fell in love with Hades, emperor of the underworld. Overcome with jealousy, Hades’ wife turned Mynthe into a mint bush for all eternity. Hades lost his lover, but her fragrance still enchants us today. The invigorating strength of French peppermint meets the vegetal freshness of Portuguese spearmint in a complex, revitalising blend, like the first stirrings of a budding love.
