Other names: Salvia fruticosa, Greek sage
Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)
Sage, also known as Salvia triloba or Salvia fruticosa and often referred to as Greek sage, is a perennial herb in the deaf-headed family that is native to the Mediterranean region. It is a beautiful, unpretentious plant with typical grey leaves and tubular flowers, whose scent and flavour are very specific and different from the commonly grown sage. It is most commonly found in Greece and Asia Minor.
Sage is mainly used in medicine and gastronomy. Its leaves are dried and then used as a spice in many Mediterranean dishes. In addition, many cosmetic products have extracts of sage in their composition for its beneficial effects on the skin and hair. It is also included in some herbal teas and infusions and is known for its antiseptic and antibacterial properties. It is also popular in aromatherapy, where its essential oils are used to calm and relax. In recent years, it has also appeared in the range of some distilleries, where it adds an unmistakable flavour and aroma to gin.
