Description


Botanical Origin


Peppermint essential oil is extracted from the Mentha piperita plant, a hybrid herb resulting from a cross between watermint (Mentha aquatica) and spearmint (Mentha spicata). This plant is native to Europe and Asia, although it is now widely cultivated in many regions of the world, including parts of North America. Young Living carefully selects its sources to ensure that the raw material is of the highest quality, contributing to the rich and complex aromatic profile of the essential oil.


Steam distillation of the leaves and aerial stems of the peppermint plant is the method used to obtain this precious oil. This process allows for the capture of volatile compounds responsible for its potent aroma and distinctive characteristics, ensuring a final product with maximum integrity.
