Its sweet anethole aroma has kept it a favourite in confectionery, liqueurs and traditional wellness ever since.

Harvesting & Extraction

Aniseed essential oil is steam distilled from the dried seeds, gently carrying the sweet anethole-rich fraction into the oil. Learn more about how we work on our distillation of essential oil page.
