What is a hydrolate?
Hydrolates (or plant waters) contain a wealth of plant ingredients.
Steam is used to extract essential oil and hydrosol from the plant. During the distillation process, water vapor is created, containing all the soluble constituents of the plant. Once the water vapor has cooled and been collected, the distillation water consists of two parts. The majority of the essential oil (fat-soluble) does not combine with the water and floats. The remaining water is then the hydrosol (water portion). The essential oil is skimmed off. What remains is the hydrosol.
Hydrolates are particularly suitable for sensitive people who cannot tolerate alcohol, for example, the elderly, pregnant women and children.
Due to current legislation and its status as a 'Novel Food', we are limited in providing information on the uses of this herb.
Our hydrolate is easy to use thanks to the cap with spray nozzle.
