Lavandin Super (Spain)

Lavandin Super is obtained by the steam distillation from flowering herbs of Lavandula hybrida. Pale yellow in colour imparts Camphoraceous, floral, fresh in odour

The aerial parts of the plant are harvested from early July to late August, when the plant secretes the most essential oil. Once harvested, the aerial portions are chopped with a forage harvester and distilled without any prior drying. This technique is known as “green” (or “green ground” or “green crushed”) distillation. Lavandin and lavender essential-oil yields vary greatly depending on region, altitude, climate, year, and field age.
