Description
Evivi Ntor: This peppery and piquant heirloom, traditionally grown by the people of the Ewe tribe in Ghana, West Africa, presents a concerto of delightful aromas and possesses many delicious culinary uses. Evivi Ntor means “very tasty” in the Ewe language and we must agree! The flavor is floral with a hint of pine and citrus, nuanced and bold! This particular variety is among many others in the area that is disappearing. It is traditionally used in soup, stew, sauce, and juices, and also to flavor local drinks. We have found this unique and delicious basil to be a stellar choice for culinary experimentation!
