Basil Microgreens
$5 / oz
Sweet, aromatic, and intensely flavorful. The essential Italian herb in micro form.
Intense Basil in Every Bite 🌿
Micro basil concentrates all the aromatic oils of mature basil into tiny, tender leaves. The result is an intensely flavorful herb that delivers more basil taste per leaf than the full-grown plant.
The aroma alone is incredible. Open the container and you're hit with that unmistakable sweet, slightly peppery basil scent. These are loaded with essential oils like linalool and eugenol, which give basil its characteristic flavor.
Use them anywhere you'd use fresh basil, but expect even more flavor. They are especially stunning as a garnish because of their delicate, uniform appearance.
"What if you could get more basil flavor from a single leaf than from an entire sprig of the full-grown plant?" 🤔

Why Our Basil Hits Different
Most basil you buy at the store was harvested days ago and shipped hundreds of miles. Our basil microgreens are harvested to order from living soil, packed with essential oils at their peak. That's why one tiny leaf delivers more flavor than a whole sprig of store-bought basil. Once you taste the difference, there's no going back.
