Rosemary- Rosmarinus Officinalis
Method of Extraction: Steam distillation of the flowerings tops and leaves.
Description: Clear, sharp, herbaceous aroma. Clear in colour.
There are three main types of rosemary. Many believe the best one for aromatherapy use is the eucalyptol (cineol) chemotype, from Tunisia, Morocco and Italy. The camphor chemotype comes from Spain, and the verbenone chemotype comes from Algeria and Corsica. The latter is contra-indicated due to neuro-toxicity. Absolute Aromas supplies the finest quality Tunisian Rosemary, which they believe is the superior product.
