Spearmint, Organic: Nepal (Mentha spicata)
Spearmint was used anciently for centuries as a covering on the street to welcome triumphant gladiators. Therapeutically the leaves were chewed to relieve heartburn, stomach aches, fevers, and sore throats. The powdered leaves were often used to repel insects and rodents.

Spearmint is in the mint family but unlike Peppermint the therapeutic oil contains minimal amounts of menthol which is the main chemical in Peppermint. Spearmint is widely cultivated on large industrialized farms and the oil is extracted to be used mostly as a flavoring agent.
