Organic Rosemary essential oil is steam distilled from the aromatic Rosemary shrub which has scaly bark, dense, leathery, needlelike leaves and tiny pale blue flowers, that bloom from December through to Spring. Steam distillation of 100 pounds of Rosemary in bloom will yield one pound of strong, clean and potent Rosemary oil.
Rosemary meaning "Rose of the Sea” has an energising effect and can be a tonic during periods of stress or to aid memory and concentration whilst studying. It has a similar 'clearing' action and scent to Eucalyptus and is a popular aromatherapy oil for respiratory problems in winter. Rosemary essential oil is also often included in aromatherapy blends for the joints and muscles.
