Pure Bergamot Essential Purenaissance Oil Therapeutic Grade, Best for Aromatherapy and Diffuser/10 ml

Product description: Originally from Italy, bergamot is a small citrus fruit that looks like lemon, with a yellow-green and thick skin. Since it is used relatively little in the form of food, it is difficult to find it on the market stalls. On the other hand, its use in the form of essential oil is much more common: it is the main reason for its cultivation on the Calabrian coast. Other countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Guinea and especially Ivory Coast produce Bergamot essential oil, but their production represents only 15% of the world market. The essential oil of Bergamot is known for its digestive qualities. Its smell is fresh, floral and lemony. On the palate, it leaves a tangy and sweet flavor. It is used in cooking in drinks, sorbets, confectionery but also associated with white meats, fish for its exotic note. The essential oil of bergamot, contained in the bark, is the subject of a special extraction technique, carried out with a special machine invented in 1924 in Italy, which offers a yield of 0.5 to 0.65% . The quality of the essential oil depends largely on the variety of the fruit.Bergamot is an essential oil particularly susceptible to adulteration due to its production in small quantities. It is cut with cheaper oils of bergamot mint or bitter orange or mixtures of terpenes ; the so-called Femminello is the best, even if it represents only 20% of harvests. Thus, it is highly recommended to consult a doctor for any use for therapeutic purposes.
