Description

Our organic Mentha piperita hydrolate for foods comes from the leaves of the plant of the species Mentha piperita, which belongs to the aromatic herbs. It is known as Mentha Piperita organic hydrolate for food. The Lamiaceae family unites the species with other aromatic plants, and the crops develop in Bulgaria under organic supervision of the fields. Steam distillation determines the purity of the scent, since only the volatile constituents of the leaf mass remain in the liquid. The scent remains at a high level of strength. Minty freshness and a cooling nuance shape the aromatic character. The color of the liquid ranges from colorless to slightly greenish. The liquid form remains unchanged throughout the entire volume of the product. Organic cultivation reduces external interventions to a minimum, and only substances of plant origin enter the liquid, without preservatives and without colorants. The glandular hairs on the leaf surface accumulate the volatile fraction, which explains the richness of the aromatic profile and the high strength of the scent in the finished liquid. Menthol and menthone occupy the leading place, while menthyl acetate and limonene complement them. The aqueous phase of the distillate is rich in oxygenated monoterpenes and monoterpene alcohols. Botany defines the species as a hybrid, born from the mixing of water mint and spearmint as representatives of the genus. Moreover, the leaf origin and the light tone of the liquid go together, since the leaf tissue gives only a slight greenish nuance to the distillate. It is precisely the purity of the extraction that makes the aromatic profile true to the plant. The final liquid combines a strong minty scent, a light tone and a composition entirely of plant origin.

Application
Mentha piperita leaf hydrolate, extracted by steam distillation, is an aromatic ingredient suitable for foods with a refreshing and minty profile. It is used in the production of dessert creams and fillings for confectionery, in fruit jellies and mousses seeking a light cooling note, as well as in sugar glazes and syrups for cakes and cookies. It is added to sorbets and frozen desserts, to which it gives a clean and balanced taste, and also to chocolate fillings, chewing gums and candies with a minty accent. It is also suitable for flavoring teas, compotes and fruit purees, where it brings freshness without dominating the natural taste of the ingredients. It is used in the creation of dessert sauces and creamy fillings, in which the delicate cooling note complements the sweet profile. Thanks to its natural origin, it is preferred for formulas seeking a clean label and a mild, refreshing character, without artificial intensity.
