Essential oil
The orange tree is grown in hot countries, around the Mediterranean, but also in Florida, Brazil and South Africa. From the cold-pressed peel of the fruit we extract the essential oil of the orange. For 500ml of essential oil you need about 100kg of fresh peel. Like all citrus essential oils, it is a photosensitizing oil. When cooked, it is a wonderful natural aroma!
Sweet orange essential oil has a fresh, fruity scent. It smells like freshly squeezed orange juice and tastes sweet and tangy. It combines well with sweet and savory dishes.The essential oil is Ecocert certified (CH-BIO-006).
