No chemical pesticides · Next-day Delhi & Gurgaon · Grown soil-free
Fragrant, sweet and unmistakably aromatic, our Italian (sweet) basil is grown indoors and snipped fresh, so the leaves arrive glossy and perfumed rather than blackened and tired. Pesticide-free and tender, it's the soul of Italian cooking and so much more.
