This Roman chamomile essential oil comes from certified organic cultivation on a farm located in the green belt between the sea and the Atlas Mountains in northern Morocco. The climate of this region provides optimal growing conditions for the chamomile plants, which can develop valuable ingredients and flavours such as isobutylmergelate or methylallylene gelate. The essential oil is extracted by steam distillation directly after harvesting on the farm in compliance with the highest quality standards.
We source this essential oil from a renowned and certified producer in the Provençal countryside of Valréas in the north of Provence in France. The company was founded around 1980 and owns plantations and farms with essential oil plants worldwide. The origin and quality of the plants are very well documented. The company works professionally and passionately according to quality standards and with many years of experience.
The oil is extracted by steam distillation directly after harvesting on the farm in compliance with the highest quality standards. Thanks to their many years of experience, the distillers use a particularly gentle distillation process at low water pressure, which leads to an almost complete extraction of the valuable phytochemicals. Its products are certified with the French organic seal EcoCert.
Roman chamomile (Chamaemelum nobilis) belongs to the Asteraceae family. It grows in meadows and fallow land in Europe and North Africa. The perennial herbaceous plant has downy, hairy leaves and, in summer, margarite-like, single, long-stalked flower heads with an intense, aromatic scent. It grows to a height of 15 to 30cm.
The typical herbaceous-floral aroma of chamomile helps to relax the psyche and nervous system. The calming, sweet nuances help with sleep issues, calm tension and stress and help to soothe quick-tempered moods.
