What is a Steam Distilled Essential Oil?

The plant material, in this case, the Bay Laurel leaves, is placed into a still; steam is then passed through, which causes the oil to vaporize, the mixture of steam and essential oil then passes through a series of cooling tubes in order to condense the mixture back to a liquid form.

This distillate is then traditionally collected in a Florentine flask which further separates the Bay Laurel Essential Oil from the water-based hydrosol.

Traditionally, the majority of essential oils are steam distilled.

Made in Canada using domestic and imported ingredients.
