Spearmint

Size: 4 oz Bag

(Latin Name: Mentha spicata)
(Also known as: Green Mint, Breath of Freshness, The Joyful Mind Herb)

Brief History & Origin

Spearmint is the Herb of Lightness, Clarity, and Sweet Breath, beloved in folk medicine, kitchen witchery, and spiritual cleansing practices for its uplifting and refreshing nature. It has been used for thousands of years across cultures—from the temple gardens of ancient Greece and Egypt to the healing baths of the Caribbean and African Diaspora.

Unlike its cousin peppermint, Spearmint is gentler, softer, and lighter—bringing ease to digestion, calm to the mind, and joy to the heart. In spiritual work, it is known to clear heavy energy, invite sweetness into life, and refresh the aura, just as its scent clears a room with one breath of green coolness.
