These peppermint geraniums are grown in their region of origin, the Western Cape Province of South Africa, controlled organic since 2015. The Cape of Good Hope has a dry Mediterranean climate, with cold, stormy winds from the Atlantic Ocean in spring and summer. These special climatic conditions coupled with mineral-rich soils create the ideal conditions for the development of the unique active ingredients, such as menthone and methanone. The fresh, aromatic leaves and twigs are harvested in the spring and fall of the southern hemisphere and the highly pure essential oil is distilled with gentle steam.

Finest Origin - Highest Grade
Farm
The family business was founded in South Africa in 1993. It specializes in the cultivation, conventional and controlled organic, and wild collection of partly endemic essential oil plants. The cultivated plants thrive on their large farm near the coast, where they are harvested at the optimal harvest time and sorted as well as processed in their own production facility. The processing of the plants takes place in their own steam distillation plant. The quality of the products is high and certified. The family business cooperates worldwide and locally with South African tea and cosmetic companies.
Peppermint Geranium
There are about 830 different species of the cranesbill family (Geraniaceae) worldwide. They occur in a variety of habitats, so they are found in mountainous as well as desert regions. In South Africa 220 to 280 species are common. The Peppermint Geranium (Pelargonium tomentosum) is one of the species native to the Western Cape Province. It can grow up to 50cm tall and produces hairy stems, velvety green leaves and small delicate white-pink flowers. The peppermint-scented leaves are used culinary for flavoring food, cold and hot drinks.
Aroma
The menthol floral notes recall a mixture of geranium, mint and subtle chocolate. This harmony of different nuances invigorates and regenerates.
