Nana Mint

Nana mint, also known as Mentha spicata 'Nana', is a variety of spearmint often grown in North Africa and parts of the Mediterranean. Unlike common spearmint, nana mint exhibits a distinctive flavor and aroma profile that makes it particularly appealing. It is characteristically more intense and sweeter than its counterparts, with a refreshing, cool, and bright fragrance.

The scent profile of nana mint is robustly minty, combining notes of freshly crushed mint leaves with a subtle, sweet undertone. The aroma is clean and piercing, which can invigorate the senses and provide a feeling of relaxation. The distinct freshness of nana mint can also include hints of lemony accents, contributing to its unique and appealing fragrance. This mint is widely used in teas, such as the famous Moroccan mint tea, and can also be found in various culinary dishes, confectioneries, and cosmetic products where a strong, refreshing minty note is desired.
