The One & Only - Norfolk Mint
The perfect base for any great mint sauce
Norfolk provides the perfect conditions for growing mint. It likes a lot of sunshine in the summer and in winter it doesn’t like it to be too wet. We have free-draining sandy soils, which are good for over-wintering mint. There’s a slightly coastal climate, so we don’t get severe frosts.
Our four growers use irrigation to give the mint perfect conditions in which to grow. This gives us good quality, reliable crops. The growers, in conjunction with Nicholson Machinery, developed their own unique mint harvester which carefully strips the leaves from the stems, leaving the stems in the field, to give our mint sauce the best taste and texture. Our growers are within an hour of our factory so the mint leaves can be blended swiftly after harvesting to ensure freshness and taste are retained.
We can tailor the product to best suit your needs. Please contact our team today to find out more.
