Thai Basil, also known as Sweet Basil or Ocimum basilicum, is a member of the Lamiaceae family (mints) and is sometimes referred to as Saint Joseph’s Wort in certain regions. The plant is known for its strong, sweet aroma, with some varieties having a subtle anise-like scent. Thai Basil is widely appreciated for its culinary uses, especially in Southeast Asian cuisines, including those of Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. In Italy, the variety commonly used is called sweet basil and is often regarded as the “King of Herbs” for its culinary importance. In Nepal, we source Thai Basil from the eastern and southern regions, where it thrives at altitudes ranging from the mid-hills to the lowlands. The plant typically grows to a height of 30–90 cm. Thai Basil can be harvested every 20–30 days, with the main harvesting season occurring from June to August.

Testimonials

Yolanda Cathcart

I have been a long time consumer of Annapurna Aroma essential oils.  I have purchased and loved the quality and integrity of the oils.  I have personally used Lemongrass, French basil, Corn-mint and Blue Chamomile.  On an energetic level the oils provide me with energy, clarity and peace of mind.  The aroma of the oils immediately makes me think of purity.  The oils have always been consistent and never appeared to smell off or oxidized.  As a company, I love the transparency and the ability to communicate easily.  Every question that I ever presented to the company was addressed in a timely manner.  May this company continue to move in a positive direction and may their oils help those that are in need of emotional support and wellbeing.

“I’ve been working with Prasun Satyal for many years now originally buying their beautiful blue chamomile! I’ve purchased many other oils from them over the years because their company is trustworthy and they care about the quality of their oils.”
