Botanical Name - Jasminum grandiflorum
Aroma - Sweet, intense, exotic floral aroma
Extraction - Steam distillation
A specialty product - Solvent extraction is the commonly used Jasmine extraction method, but NHR Organic Oils is one of the few companies in the world who offer this very rare and precious steam distilled essential oil. The new process lies within the scope of classical distillation but with a 'tweak' to it that was discovered after over 20 years of research. We are very excited about this breakthrough which is a
world's first. The process is not the
result of a technological breakthrough but rather a
different approach at performing distillation.
