Hydrosol Discussion:

Hydrosol is made during the steam distillation process. The plant matter is added to a vat of sterile water, which we allow to sit and steep, ensuring a dense hydrosol in the end. The vat is then heated to high temperatures that create dense steam. The steam is quickly cooled, solidifying it back to its liquid state and it still contains the plant compounds and its essential oil. The essential oil is the prize that most distillers desire. Upon sitting, the essential oils begin to float on top of the hydrosol, which then gets separated and removed. However, we do it differently! We do not take the essential oil out of the hydrosol. Our hydrosols still contain their essential oils intact!

Amazingly, the steam converted hydrosol is a naturally collided suspension that contains the vitamins, nutrients, acids, essential oils, aromatic compounds, and other soluble constituents.

Hydrosol is Hydrosol is clear, powerfully scented, and non-sticky, making it great to use as a body, facial, or linen/room spray. We suggest adding it to your herbal tea or water throughout the day. You must do your own research to know whether a specific plant itself is edible. If the plant is edible, the hydrosol is as well. Also, be sure to consult with your practitioner if you are on medications, just as you would any herb that you plan to use orally.

Keep your hydrosol product refrigerated to extend its shelf life and to chill your facial/body spray, making it refreshingly cool! There are no preservatives added to our hydrosols.
