What Are Essential Oils?
Essential oils are highly concentrated aromatic compounds extracted from plants through steam distillation.
A small amount of plant material yields a tiny amount of oil, which is why essential oils are so potent and valuable.
Making essential oils requires a steam distillation setup, which can range from small home stills to larger commercial equipment.
This is an advanced product category best suited for growers ready to invest in equipment and proper training.
