This bitter orange plantation is located near the coast of the Ionian Sea in Calabria, Italy, which offers the ideal microclimate for the trees to thrive by promoting the harmonious development of the natural ingredients in the plants. After harvesting the fruit, the trees are pruned by hand between January and March. The fresh young shoots from the pruning are processed in the local distillery using gentle steam to produce this aromatic essential oil. The special aroma and intensity of the essential oil are based on the many years of experience and passion of the farmers in cultivation, harvesting and distillation, as well as the select terroir of Calabria.

The producer of our high-quality essential oil is a small family-run company that has been growing, cultivating, harvesting and processing its own citrus fruits and those from cooperatives since around 1950. The company is located in the heart of Calabria, Italy. The fresh citrus fruits are harvested and processed throughout the year and are processed for essential oil production from October to January. The 100% natural, certified organic essential oils are gently extracted in our own production facility using cold pressing.

The bitter orange (Citrus aurantium) belongs to the rue family (Rutaceae). The hybrid plant is probably a cross between the grapefruit (Citrus maxima) and the mandarin (Citrus reticulata), which grows as a shrub or small tree. It has oval-elliptical leaves and produces fragrant white flowers that develop into orange fruits up to 5cm in diameter in winter. The orange is endemic to southeast Asia. The fruit peel, flowers (neroli) and fresh twigs and leaves (petitgrain) are used to produce three different essential oils, which are popular aromas in perfumes and eau de cologne. In addition, the fruits are used in a variety of foodstuffs such as candied orange peel, jams, liqueurs and lemonades.

The green-tart aroma gives harmony, strength and balance. It has a tension-relieving and anxiety-relieving effect.
