Aromatic Hydrosols

Aromatic Hydrosols

These are produced through steam or hydrodisitllation and contain the water soluble components of the plant. I have been disitllign various hydrosols on a small scale for over 20 years. I do not remove any essential oil in the hydrosol. I distill seasonally and on demand. Most of my hydrosols are produced from my own plants (organic and spray free), however I can also do small scale custom distillation of other products (e.g. dry herbs, fresh plant material)

How to use Hydrosols

Hydrosols have a range of uses from room fresheners, hair and beauty products or use to make soaps.

These are distilled fresh to order so you are getting the freshest possible hydrosol.
