I look for an herb to:

• LOOK like the herb – same color as when fresh, not brown or overly faded.
• SMELL like the herb – Fresh smell? Or is it musty, moldy or stinky?
• TASTE like the herb – is it identifiable, or tasteless?
• WORK LIKE the herb – do you get the results you expected?

And,

• Be organically grown or conscientiously wildcrafted

If your answer to any of the above is no, send your herb to the compost, and click through to Mountain Rose Herbs!
