Description

Our natural hyssop essential oil for food is obtained from the plant with the botanical name Hyssopus officinalis. In international practice the product is designated as Hyssop natural essential oil for food. Its composition covers only volatile substances and remains fully natural. Among the substances, the monoterpene ketones isopinocamphone and pinocamphone predominate, accompanied by beta-pinene, which also belongs to the monoterpene fraction of the species. The ketones originate from the aboveground stalk, harvested in full bloom, when the glandular hairs on it carry the main volatile content. The stalk comes from plantations in Bulgaria, and the plant belongs to the family Lamiaceae with its herbaceous perennial species and low subshrubs with fragrant shoots. The plantations are grown in a natural way, which is why the composition of the raw material remains pure and close to the natural appearance of the aboveground part. The raw material undergoes steam distillation, which transfers the volatile compounds into the liquid and leaves the purity of the herbal scent unchanged in the finished product. The scent unfolds as a sharp herbal tone with a clearly perceptible camphoraceous note. The tones are carried by a mobile liquid whose consistency remains homogeneous. Its colour ranges from colourless to pale yellow, because the stalk passes only faintly coloured components to the steam. The product contains neither preservatives nor colourants. The purity of the liquid comes from the natural cultivation and from the careful distillation of the flowering stalk. The sharp character of the odour goes together with the dense camphoraceous base of the volatile fraction and with its herbal freshness. Hyssop oil retains its camphoraceous depth alongside the herbal freshness of the raw material.

Application
Hyssop, Hyssopus officinalis, finds application in the food industry as a natural flavouring with a characteristic herbaceous-minty flavour profile.
