This is basil among basils, the one you reach for when you have pesto on your mind. Genovese is the classic Italian large-leaved variety that has an inherent sweetness, a slightly spicy, anise-like taste, and an aroma as big as Tuscany. When picked at the micro stage, the flavor is even more crisp.

Here's what you get:

  • 2 oz of micro Genovese Basil

That's Amore

Italian folklore is crazy for basil: If a woman sported a pot of the aromatic herb on her windowsill, it gave suitors the green light. Another legend gives some advice to men: Give a woman a sprig of sweet basil and she’ll love you forever. We think it may just be that the scent of Genovese basil is so pleasing that it can lure anyone its way. But we’re partial. We could swim in pesto and eat nothing but caprese salads of fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, and Genovese basil. We’re unabashedly in love.
