Description
🌍 Origin & Background
Bergamot is primarily cultivated in Italy, with commercial cultivation also found in India and other Mediterranean regions. The fruit is valued for its highly aromatic peel, which produces one of the most prized citrus essential oils used in the fragrance and cosmetic industries.
🌱 Plant Description & Raw Material
Citrus bergamia is a small citrus tree producing pear-shaped fruits. The essential oil is extracted from the fresh fruit peel, where the aromatic compounds are naturally concentrated. Oil quality depends on climate, soil conditions, fruit maturity, and harvesting practices.
🔥 Extraction Method
Bergamot Essential Oil is extracted by cold pressing the fresh peel to preserve its delicate aromatic profile and naturally occurring compounds. Each production batch undergoes GC-MS analysis to verify purity, composition, and consistency.
