This lemon plantation is located near the coast of the Ionian Sea in Calabria, Italy, which offers the ideal microclimate for the lemon trees to thrive by promoting the harmonious development of the natural ingredients in the plants. After harvesting the fruit, the trees are pruned by hand between January and March. The young shoots from the pruning are processed in the local distillery using gentle steam to produce this aromatic essential oil. The special aroma and intensity of the essential oil are based on the many years of experience and passion of the farmers in cultivation, harvesting and distillation, as well as the select terroir of Calabria.

Farm
The producer of our high-quality essential oil is a small family-run company that has been growing, cultivating, harvesting and processing its own citrus fruits and those from cooperatives since around 1950. The company is located in the heart of Calabria, Italy. The fresh citrus fruits are harvested and processed throughout the year and are processed for essential oil production from October to January. The 100% natural, certified organic essential oils are gently extracted in our own production facility using cold pressing.
Lemon
The evergreen lemon tree (Citrus limon) belongs to the rue family (Rutaceae). It grows as a large shrub or small tree whose leaf axils are often covered with thorns. In the spring and summer months, the tree bears fragrant white flowers, from which the oval yellow fruits develop. Originally from China, the lemon tree is now widespread throughout the world in regions with subtropical and tropical climates.
Aroma
The green-tart aroma gives harmony, strength and balance. It has a tension-relieving and anxiety-relieving effect.
