WHY OUR THERAPEUTIC HYDROSOLS ARE DIFFERENT

ALCOHOL-FREE HYDROSOLS

Fresh Certified Organic Herbs: Our hydrosols are distilled from fresh, organic plant material, not dried. The hydrophillic (water loving) properties are intact when fresh material is used.

Clear, Sterile Jars: We have nothing to hide! It is true that your hydrosols should be kept cool and dark. However, we believe that you should be able to SEE your hydrosols. It is very important to be able to observe if your hydrosol is off. This includes any changes such as color or "blooms". They are perishable products and should be treated with respect.

Distillation Data: If you are using your hydrosols therapeutically you need information, The 5 W's ©. When was it distilled, What herb(s)were used and what part Where did the herb come from Weight what is the plant/hydrosol ratio Why was it distilled- for the essential oil or the hydrosol

Copper Alembic Stills: Copper stills remove the yeast and sulphur that can make hydrosols smell bad. Copper is known for its anti-microbial properties and may have some preservative effect on the hydrosols. Hydrosols distilled on copper have a sweeter aroma and are useable immediately. No need to wait for the still note to disappear, which can take up to a year!

Small Batching: All of our hydrosols are distilled by us personally, we do not buy in hydrosols. Our hydrosols are distilled in small batches under low temperatures and low pressure. This make for high quality essential oils and hydrosols.

Plant to Hydrosol Ratio: We keep a database on all our hydrosols and believe that we have some of the highest Plant:Hydrosol ratios on the market. Our Hydrosols are not "watered down" or run long and made weak.
