Bergamot
Mint Oil

Indian bergamot mint thrives in the fertile lowlands at altitudes up to 300m in Uttar Pradesh, India. The sunny microclimate and nutrient-rich soils allow the herb to flourish, optimally developing valuable components such as linalyl acetate (43%), linalool (nearly 38%) and a subtle 3% menthol content.

After harvesting during the summer flowering period, the fresh herb is processed in the estate's distillery using gentle steam distillation. The complex aroma and exceptional purity of the essential oil are a testament to the distillers' long-standing experience and mindful passion.

Bergamot mint (Mentha citrata or Mentha x piperita var. citrata) is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to the mint family (Lamiaceae). It produces dark green leaves, often tinged with a slight reddish to violet hue, and brings forth delicate violet to pink inflorescences in the summer months. Originally derived from a natural cross between water mint and spearmint, it owes its name to the characteristic bergamot-like fragrance of its leaves. Today, this special mint species is cultivated primarily in sunny Northern India to yield the highest qualities of oil.
