Purple Basil Fresh Leaves

Purple basil, also called Dark Opal basil, boasts a slightly spicy and sweet flavor profile similar to other basil varieties, with subtle undertones of mint and clove. It has a more tender and delicate texture than other types of basil.

We take pride in providing organic produce that is free from harmful chemicals, herbicides, or pesticides. Our produce is carefully hand-picked and packed on the same day of delivery to ensure optimal freshness, flavor, and nutritional value.
