As its name suggests, this species of basil grows naturally in Southeast Asia.
It is distinguished by elongated, pointed, medium green leaves, borne on very dark wine-red stems that end in purple-pink flower spikes. These leaves have a spicy flavor reminiscent of tarragon, anise, or even clove.
Highly prized in Thai cuisine, it enhances soups, stir-fries, and spicy dishes. It produces particularly well in hot weather and in containers, but must not lack water.
