Egyptian dried thyme is supplied in three cut grades — crushed leaf, TBC, and ground — each suited to a different stage of the buyer’s production line, from tea-bag filling to industrial powder blending.
Double-layer bag packaging: our thyme is packed in reinforced double-layer bags, 15kg per bag, yielding approximately 15 metric tons per 40ft container or 9 metric tons per 20ft container. This reinforced packaging helps preserve aroma and leaf integrity over long ocean transit times.
Summer harvest: thyme harvested in summer is considered higher quality than other times of year — a relevant seasonal signal for buyers timing their supply, though not yet a formally confirmed buying window on our end. Occasionally, whole bundle thyme is also available for buyers with specific presentation requirements, though this form is requested far less often than our standard cut grades.
Volatile oil content is the key quality differentiator buyers look for when sourcing Egyptian thyme, since a higher oil percentage translates directly into a stronger, more consistent aroma in the finished product — a factor we test for on every batch before shipment.
We supply thyme year-round, with volumes and lead times adjusted around the summer harvest window to keep quality consistent for buyers ordering on a recurring schedule.
Thyme is one of the highest and most consistent-demand lines in our dried spice category, ordered regularly by buyers across the food, pharmaceutical, and herbal tea industries.
The narrow, needle-shaped leaf is the visual hallmark of genuine Egyptian thyme, a trait buyers familiar with the origin use as an authenticity reference.
Stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, our dried thyme retains its color, aroma, and active compounds for up to 24 months from the packing date. Egyptian dried thyme is widely used in spice blends, marinades, pharmaceutical extracts, and essential oil formulations, valued for its warm aromatic profile and consistent volatile oil content across harvests.
We also maintain full traceability from the growing farm through processing and packing, giving importers the documentation needed for customs clearance and quality audits on arrival.
Every order is backed by a certificate of analysis confirming moisture, purity, and volatile oil results for that specific batch, so buyers can verify quality before the shipment leaves Egypt.
