Lemongrass essential oil may smell just like lemon essential oil to some people, but to many people and the select few with a great sense of smell, it is less tangy, milder, and sweeter than lemon essential oil. Used mostly for its citronella-like warding off of insects, it can also be used as a home remedy for body aches and muscle pain as well as killing germs that may make you sick.

The Lemongrass essential oil is native to Asia. The plant is grown primarily in East India but is now predominantly cultivated in western India.

The Lemongrass essential oil was traditionally employed for its medicinal properties in India. The oil was used to combat infectious illnesses and fever. Recent studies have exhibited the plant as a natural sedative on the central nervous system.

Lemongrass is also employed as an insecticide and flavoring agent for food. Upon completion of the distillation process, the exhausted grass is used locally to feed livestock (cattle).

[dropcap style=”font-size: 25px; color: #76bc41;”]H[/dropcap]arvesting

The essential oil is cultivated, harvested and extracted from East India or South Africa.

The Lemongrass essential oil is extracted from the leaves (grass) of the plant.

The essential oil is 100% pure & natural. Meaning, the essential oil comes from plants that are free from any kind of dilutions, chemicals or pesticides usage.

[dropcap style=”font-size: 25px; color: #ff9900;”]M[/dropcap]ethod of Extraction

The Lemongrass essential oil is extracted via Steam Distillation from the leaves (grass) of the plant.

The botanical material (Cymbopogon Citratus) is placed in a still and hot steam. The aromatic molecules from the plant material are released as the hot steam excretes out the oils kept within the plant material. The molecules of these precious and volatile oils escape the plant and evaporate into the steam.

The temperature of the steam is carefully controlled to ensure that the plant material and the essential oil are not burned but is hot enough for the extraction of the essential oils out of the plant.

The steam which contains the essential oil passes through a cooling system to condense the steam into a liquid. The liquid substance which contains both water and the essential oil are separated. The essential oils are then stored in a dark and cool environment to maintain optimal potency levels and reduce oxidation.

[dropcap style=”font-size: 25px; color: #76bc41;”]C[/dropcap]emistry Testing

The essential oils must go through a meticulous quality assurance test to ensure that the essential oil has the right aroma, color and viscosity.
