Mint Vs Spearmint Plant

Mint vs spearmint plant
Taste: Spearmint has a subtler, lighter flavor, vaguely sweet flavor. Peppermint has a sharper flavor that is almost spicy due to its high menthol content.
Which is better spearmint or mint?
While peppermint's menthol content is a whopping 40 per cent, spearmint contains just 0.5 per cent. Therefore peppermint is especially pungent and even spicy, hence the 'pepper' in its name. Spearmint, on the other hand, contains a compound called carvone, which gives it a much subtler, sweeter flavour.
