This variety of myrtle (Leptospermum petersonii Variety B) is sustainably cultivated in its endemic habitat in the subtropical northern region of the Australian state of New South Wales. This aromatic plant, specifically grown for the production of its citrus-rose-like essential oil, was propagated by our producer on their farm. The cultivation process avoids the use of pesticides and relies exclusively on organic fertilisers. Plant material generated during the distillation process is recycled as fertiliser. The subtropical climate in the picturesque hinterland of Byron Bay provides ideal conditions for the development of natural aromas, such as geranyl acetate, geraniol and neral in the plant. Fresh leaves and young branches are hand-collected during the autumn months and directly distilled in the on-site distillery to produce this highly aromatic essential oil.
