Lemon Balm Essence 20 ml

Esila Lemon Balm Essence comes in a 20 ml size. The brand behind this product, Esila, has been preparing herbal products in İskenderun, Hatay, for 30 years. Lemon balm, the plant that gives the essence its name, is a herbaceous perennial in the mint family. Its green leaves have toothed edges and grow in opposite pairs along the stem. The plant produces small, pale flowers and is grown in herb gardens, particularly for its lemon-scented foliage.

Lemon balm leaves are known for a lemon-like aroma with green, herbaceous notes. Gently rubbing a leaf between the fingers makes that fragrance more noticeable. The leaves also have a place in cooking: they can be added to salads, fruit desserts and drinks, while dried leaves are used to prepare herbal tea. Their citrus-like character is a recurring aromatic feature in these recipes. The leaves can also serve as a green garnish on desserts.
