Key Takeaways
Chubryca is a blend of spices originating in Bulgaria, where it is known as chubrica. Its main ingredient is mountain savory (Satureja Montana). In Poland, several producers create this aromatic seasoning using garden savory (Satureja hortensis), which is less intense than its wild relative. Mountain savory is characterized by a pungent flavor, similar in strength to black pepper, and has a spicy, intense aroma.
