Spikenard Hydrolate Organic 100ml

We have been cultivating organic flowers and herbs on our Felslindenhof for many years.

We put our own tailor-made steam still into operation in 2014. This enables us to process the freshly harvested plants immediately, i.e. to produce organically certified hydrolates of the highest quality ourselves.

Hydrolates, formerly also called plant waters, floral waters or aromatic waters, are a valuable by-product of steam distillation. They form as condensate when the water vapor cools and are mixed with the water-soluble components of the plant, while the oil contains the fat-soluble, volatile components. Since the effect of the hydrosols is milder, they can be applied directly to the skin without hesitation.

These waters, so highly valued by our grandparents' generation, are currently experiencing a true renaissance.

Nard roots have become very rare. Obtaining roots from wild collection, as we have managed to do, is a stroke of luck. After careful distillation, spikenard hydrolate is now available in limited quantities.
