The Ricqlès Mint, also called strong menthol or icy mint, has a high concentration in menthol. It is well appreciated in tea as well as in cold drinks, thanks to its refreshing – almost 'freezing'- taste. The leaves have this specific fragrance that will bring perfume to your flowerbeds and herb gardens, as well as your balconies and terraces if you plant them in pots.
