適用范圍：This Part of BS 7087 specifies requirements for the dried leaves of tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus Linnaeus) and sub-species/varieties thereof, a perennial herbaceous plant of the large sub-genus Artemisia of the Anthemideae of the order Compositae. There are two varieties in commercial use sharing the same botanical taxa but having quite different characteristics. They are in order of importance: a) French or German type tarragon that has a strong aromatic flavour indicative of aniseed, that is the favoured variety for culinary use; and b) Russian type tarragon, a coarser taller plant with a harsher flavour. NOTE. Annex A provides information on the differences that enable these species to be identified. This Part of BS 7087 also specifies requirements for dried ground tarragon derived from the whole tarragon leaves conforming to this standard. Additional information on further requirements that may be specified in purchase contracts is given in annex C.
