Pimento racemose is steam distilled in the USA from the leaves of an evergreen tropical tree growing 8 meters high, also known as West Indian bay, Myrcia, Bay Rum Tree, Wild Cinnamon, and Bayberry.
The tree is indigenous to Asia Minor, from where it spread to the Mediterranean and then to other countries with similar climates. In the Middle Ages, it was believed to induce abortions and to have many magical qualities. It was once used to keep moths away, owing to the leaf’s lauric acid content which gives it insecticidal properties Each of the bay leaf oils is sourced from the highest quality suppliers, often direct from the producer, and is individually tested. Essential Oils such as bay leaf oil are a source of great pleasure and give a sense of well-being both to body and soul.
Essential oil is a concentrated, aromatic, volatile liquid composed of small oil-like molecules. They consist of a complicated combination of naturally occurring chemicals which the plant itself produces through photosynthesis. They are called essential oils but in fact contain no fatty substances in the same way that, e.g. Almond Oil does. Because they are volatile they do not create oil stains.
