Balm Mint Bush (Prostanthera melissifolia) grows wild among tall eucalyptus trees in the vast, unspoiled mountainous landscape of the state of Victoria. The moderate, high-precipitation climate that prevails in south-east Australia offers the plants sufficient moisture and thus ideal conditions to develop their complex ingredients and fragrances, such as alpha-pinene, piperitone, 1.8-cineol and linalool. The fresh leaves and twigs are collected from the wild during the winter months and steamed into this fresh, aromatic essential oil in the local distillery.

The manufacturer of this special essential oil has been producing products from plants native to Australia for over 30 years. Since 2012 he has been producing and selling exclusively native essential oils and hydrosols from his own production and from cooperation partners throughout Australia. Since the early 1990s he has been involved in landscape conservation in Australia and a sustainable and careful use of the native flora. The native plants for the production of its essential oils and plant waters come either from wild collection or from sustainable cultivation.

Balm Mint Bush (Prostanthera melissifolia) is one of about 100 species of the genus Prostanthera from the mint family (Lamiaceae), which are exclusively native to Australia. The shrub-like, evergreen, very aromatic plant is native to the wooded mountain regions of the states of New South Wales and Victoria. Balm Mint Bush reaches a height of 1 to 2 meters and likes to grow on roadsides, clearings and rocky outcrops between tall eucalypts in the temperate climate zone with high rainfall in south-eastern Australia. Leaves are dark green, oval, and have many oil glands that spread their minty aroma when touched. A multitude of purple-colored, bell-shaped flowers appear between October and December.

The strong mint aroma has a clarifying and refreshing effect on body and mind. It awakens a feeling of lightness paired with inner strength, gives joy and optimism.
