Aniseed Essential Oil (Pimpinella anisum)
Aniseed (or Anise) is a flowering herb originally native to the Middle East. It is currently grown in Southwest Asia, North Africa, USA and Southeastern Mediterranean regions. It has small white flowers that grow in clusters and produce oblong fruits called Aniseed. Aniseed Essential Oil is produced from the dried Aniseed fruit. The high content of the molecule Anethol causes the essential oil to crystallize at cooler temperatures. If this happens, just place your bottle in a warm location (or hand-warm) and it will return to a liquid form. When this oil crystallizes, it is proof that the oil is pure.
