Botanical name: Its Latin name is Juniperus Communis (Juniper (Common Juniper - Common Juniper).
Juniper or Wild Cypress (Juniperberry) is a small tree that grows up to 3 meters in height. It is found in the eastern Mediterranean. , in southern regions of Turkey, Greece, Syria and Lebanon.
The flowering period is from May to June.
All parts of the plant are utilized, such as the dried fruits, the bark, sometimes the woody part and the stems with the leaves.
Juniper berries contain plenty of essential oil.
Extraction Method
The essential oil is produced by steam distillation of the berries. Distillation is a delicate process requiring experience and constant supervision in order to obtain a high-quality oil. Our chemists and perfumers undertake this delicate process to obtain high quality essential oils. During the steam distillation process, steam passes through the plant material. The combination of heated steam and gentle pressure causes the essential oil to be released from microscopic protective sacs flooding the air with the most beautiful and exquisite natural scents.
Our equipment ensures the best quality of essential oil. It takes 100 kg of herbs to make 1 lt of essential oil. We produce Dittany essential oil in a worldwide exclusivity, as well as a wide range of rare essential oils from flowers and herbs in our distillery in Agios Nikolaos, Crete. An “essencier” or separator collects the floral water or hydrosol and the essential oil. The difference in density between the two liquids makes it easy to separate the essential oil from the floral water.
Properties
The berries are used for their healing properties. Their essential oil facilitates blood circulation and their special balsamic and bittersweet aroma is particularly preferred in the aromatization of mainly alcoholic beverages such as gin.
Juniper plants are grown at our estate in Crete and the essential oil produced is of excellent quality.
