All grades of Starwest Botanical dried lavender possess a very fragrant aroma and distinct flavors that become more subtle when used in an infusion, such as a tea. These  dried lavender buds are perfectly suitable for culinary use, crafts, potpourri, and for therapeutic use such as in body care products like soap, essential oils, lotions, and shampoos. There are slight variations of color and aroma between each grade of lavender flower.

Extra grade dry lavender has a slightly bitter, floral, grassy flavor enhanced by the aroma. The flowers have a little more green or blue-grey color compared to Select and Super, and also contains slightly more stems and leaves.
