Organic Lemongrass Essential Oil, 50ml

Background Cymbopogon flexuous, commonly known as Cochin grass, Malabar grass, or Lemongrass, is a densely growing shrub native to moist regions of India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Southeast Asia. Its long, razor-like leaves emit a distinct citrusy aroma with a lime-like undertone. Traditionally used in the perfume and essential oil industry, Lemongrass became a popular global commodity in the early 19th century due to its therapeutic and aromatic benefits. General Information Ecodrop's Organic Lemongrass Essential Oil is extracted from Cymbopogon flexuous leaves harvested in eastern India, cultivated according to UK Soil Association Organic Standards. The top leaf portion contains the highest oil concentration, which is why harvesting takes place early in the morning to preserve potency. Leaves are then dried in shade and undergo steam distillation to produce pure, aromatic, and therapeutic-grade Lemongrass oil.
