Description: 1 oz. Hyssop Herb Powder (Hyssopus officinalis) Also known as Hyssopus officinalis. Introduction “Purge me with hyssop,” the Bible records, “and I will be clean.” Hyssop has been used for millennia as a holy herb, consecrated for cleaning holy places. Its name comes from the Hebrew word adobe or ezob, which literally means “holy herb”. Hyssop is an evergreen bushy herb growing 1 to 2 feet (60 to 90 cm) high on a square stem with linear leaves and flowers in whorls of 6 to 15 blooms. Native to southern Europe, it is grown in gardens in cooler climates around the world. Hyssop has a mint-like taste (which is understandable as it is part of the mint family) that makes it a tasty addition to salads, provided it is used in small quantities. It has been considered an aphrodisiac when combined with ginger, thyme, and pepper. Hyssop has been hung in homes to provide protection from the evil eye, and from witches. It has also been planted frequently on graves as protection for the dead from the living. Constituents Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, essential oil. Parts Used Above-ground parts of the plant dried and cut, and essential oil. Some vendors offer the more traditional hyssop flowers, without stem or leaf. Typical Preparations Traditionally used in teas, however it may be equally effective as a capsule or extract. Hyssop is used as an ingredient in eau de Cologne and the liqueur Chartreuse. It is also used to color the spirit Absinthe, along with Melissa and wormwood. Hyssop is also used, usually in combination with other herbs such as liquorice,[ in herbal remedies, especially for lung conditions. Ritual use Hyssop is also often used to fill the Catholic ceremonial Aspergillum, which the priest dips into a bowl of holy water, and sprinkles onto the congregation to bless them.
