Ocimum basilicum
Basil – The King of Culinary Herbs
At Herbs Horizon Ltd, our Basil is hand-harvested at peak maturity when leaves are large, vibrant green, and full of essential oils, then immediately cooled post-harvest to preserve flavor and aroma.
Basil delivers a bright, aromatic flavor that defines Mediterranean cuisine — the foundation of pesto, essential in Caprese salads, and perfect for pasta sauces, pizzas, and Mediterranean dishes. It’s also excellent in Thai and Vietnamese cuisine.
Grown year-round under protected greenhouse cultivation, so there is no seasonal gap in supply.
