The farm is located in a secluded area in the foothills of the Greek island Euböa, far from industry. The climate and soil are ideal for growing Mediterranean herbs due to the combination of heat and plentiful water. Heavy rainfall in the winter helps the thyme grow deep and resilient root networks that can support healthy and nutritious plants. During the hot, dry summers, the thyme plants release essential oils, creating a wonderful scent.
This family-operated farm is specialised in the cultivation of thyme.

Herbal teas have been one of the most important applications of traditional herbalism for hundreds of years. Hot water helps release the valuable ingredients so that they can be easily absorbed by the body. Each herb represents a unique complex of active ingredients, sometimes combining hundreds of individual compounds. We select only the highest quality herbs from the best terroirs around the world, either from certified organic cultivation or wildcrafting. Our farms are often small, passionate family-run businesses with a long history of cultivating and processing the highest quality herbs and wild plants.
Our comprehensive portfolio focuses on organic, single-origin teas sourced directly from renowned farms. We believe in creating partnerships with farmers who share our values and are committed to sustainable, responsible tea cultivation. Thanks to these strong relationships our exciting range is constantly growing and evolving. As an international team of dedicated and passionate tea experts, we are committed to preserving centuries-old tea culture while ensuring it remains relevant and continues to bring joy in the present. About Yoshi En.
To ensure the most gentle and environmentally friendly farming possible, the harvest is completed entirely by hand without the use of machinery. The thyme is picked exclusively in the early morning or the evening so that the plants are not damaged during the intense daylight. Drying takes place in special dryers to guarantee optimal aroma and nutrient retention.
