Thymus
mastichina
From the lamiaceae
family iriginating in Spain
and should not be confused
with sweet of French
Marjoram, Marjorana
hortensis.
It is a perennial plant
growing up to 60 cms high
with a hairy stem, dark green
oval leaves and small
reddish purple flowers.
The whole plant is
strongly aromatic. The oil
has a warm, penetrating and
slightly eucalyptus type
odour. And it is steam
distilled from the dried
flowering herb.
Spanish Marjoram
properties are analgesic,
antiseptic, antispasmodic,
bactericidal, carminative,
digestive, diuretic,
expectorant, hypotensive,
nervine, stomachic,
vulnerary.
Considered to have
similar properties to Sweet
Marjoram.
Due to the higher 1,8-
cineole content of Spanish
marjoram, this oil is more
effective used as an
expectorant for respiratory
tract infections and spasms. It
is non toxix, non irritant and
non sensitising.
