This Part of BS 7087 specifies requirements for dried whole oregano (wild marjoram) in bouquets, rubbed oregano, processed for food use and derived from the Labiatae perennial species Origanum vulgare L, its subspecies (virens, vulgare etc.) and other Origanum species with the exception of Origanum marjorana L., e.g. Origanum X applii and subspecies including some subspecies of Origanum onites. Some 200 subspecies of Origanum are known.

This Part of BS 7087 also applies to Lippia graveolans L. (Mexican oregano). The botanical classifications between marjoram and oregano are small but distinct flavour differences exist.

This Part of BS 7087 also specifies requirements for ground oregano derived from the whole oregano complying with this standard.

Additional information on further requirements that may be specified in purchase contracts is given in Annex C.
