The wild ravintsara grows at an elevation of 800m, near the sea on the east coast of Madagascar. There, the seasonal temperature fluctuations which are characteristic of the oceanic climate, result in the formation of a high concentration of components within the plant. After the leaves have been harvested by hand, they are taken to the local distillery where they are processed via steam distillation in a stainless steel tank.
