Our Process

The environment is important to us, and we use sustainable methods when collecting plant material for distillation of our Eucalyptus products.

Leaves are collected from windfall and naturally occurring trees, selectively harvested by hand which further stimulates healthy regrowth. We also follow a natural approach by using hydro distillation, one of the oldest known methods of extracting oils from plant material.

As oil is lighter than water, it separates and is collected as essential oil. Very fine particles of oil remain preserved in the condensed water, which is collected as hydrosol – or floral water. There are no further treatments or dilution and we believe our process results in a softer, less harsh oil. Directly from the tree to the still to the bottle.

With previous careers in chemical engineering and environmental management, we find this art of alpine alchemy very rewarding and love creating natural organic products with authentic provenance, directly from the source.
