This Kunzea grows in pristine nature on Flinders Island, situated in the middle of the Bass Strait in north-east Tasmania. Flinders Island regularly has strong south-west winds with influences directly from the Antarctic Circle and high annual rainfall of over 700 mm. This harsh, windy and changeable climate offers the ideal conditions for the kunzea plant to thrive and for the harmonious development of the natural ingredients and aromas, such as α-pinene, viridiflorol and 1,8-cineole. Between September and May, the fresh twigs and leaves are collected from wild plants and then gently distilled with steam in the small local still.
This high quality essential oil is made in a small company that was founded in Australia in 1980. It produces a small range of indigenous essential oils and plant extracts and works with local producers to expand the range. The essential oils and plant extracts are produced from certified organic, sustainably cultivated or wild-collected plants. For the manufacturer, the traceability of the origin, sustainability and quality of the essential oils and plant extracts are top priorities.
Kunzea ambigua is a species of flowering plant in the myrtle family (Myrtaceae). It is endemic to southeastern Australia in the states of New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania. Kunzea is a small to medium-sized bush that grows to a height of 4 to 5 meters and is at home near the coast, in heathland or open forests. The aromatic, dark green leaves are 1 cm long and needle-shaped, between September and January it bears small white, rarely pink, aromatic flowers. The natives of Tasmania already knew about the strengths of the plant and used it for many purposes.
The fresh, woody-spicy aroma gives you strength and zest for action to approach new goals with optimism. The fragrance centers and strengthens body and mind.
