Meadow Kings / Real Meadowsweet Essential Oil

Meadow Queen / Real Meadowsweet Essential Oil

The meadowsweet(Filipendula ulmaria) is a plant species of the genus meadowsweet(Filipendula) in the rose family (Rosaceae). It is native to large areas of Europe and can be found in nutrient-rich damp and wet meadows, along ditches and stream banks and in alder-ash forests. On rarely mown and nutrient-rich water edges, the meadowsweet is a leading plant of the meadowsweet perennial meadows (Filipendulion) (Wikipedia).

Here comes an absolute highlight. Meadowsweet flowers from our wet meadows and forest edges collected in laborious work, as the flowers are relatively small and it takes hours and days to collect a sufficient amount. But it was worth it. Not distilled with rosemary as available in the market as this doesn’t go together at all in my personal opinion. The soft, flowery meadowsweet with the dominant camphor scent of rosemary, an unhappy and disharmonious wedding.

We are obliged to state a best before date, but most oils have a much longer shelf life and even improve in their fragrance bouquet. Please check this before disposing of the oils after the best-before date.

– It would be a great pity to lose them.

The real meadowsweet

We distill the meadowsweet flowers with copaiva balsam resin. Very harmonious, a love marriage of the first order, the discreet, restrained copaiva balsam resin gives priority to meadowsweet in the dominant fragrance and even supports it in its charisma, so that one gets the impression of a full-bodied, pronounced meadowsweet oil. It is necessary to strive for CO distillation with another oil when extracting meadowsweet, as meadowsweet oil is very difficult to capture and requires a carrier oil.
The carrier oil in the distillation, in this case copaiva balsam resin, is represented with approx. 10%, but in the end result only noticeable for experienced noses.

For 1ltr. Oil you need about 150kg of herb.

Before internal use, please consult specialist books, doctor or aromatherapist.
