Ceylon Oregano

🌿 Ceylon Oregano – The Island’s Mediterranean Touch 

🔸 A New Leaf in Sri Lanka’s Herbal Legacy…

Though traditionally native to the Mediterranean, Oregano has found a vibrant second home in the cool, elevated gardens of Sri Lanka’s central hills. Grown free from chemicals in rich volcanic soil and fresh mountain air, Ceylon Oregano offers a bolder aroma, sharper flavor, and higher essential oil content than many imported varieties.

Sri Lankan farmers hand-harvest and slow-dry the oregano leaves under natural sun — ensuring every pack retains its herbal depth, earthy intensity, and zesty warmth. Known locally as a new-age herb with ancient healing power, Ceylon Oregano brings a unique tropical twist to a globally loved leaf.

Today, it stands as a symbol of fusion between East and West — Mediterranean tradition meets Ceylonese purity.
