Essential Oil - Clove

Dosage: 0,5-2 ml

Cloves are dried, still closed flower buds of the clove tree. The harvest takes place before the buds come out and form deep red blossoms. The flower buds are very carefully picked by hand. If they are picked, they are on the verge of release and that is to be prevented. The flower buds are dried for a few days in the open air. After this, the flower buds are dark brown with lighter brown cups and they are called cloves. Cloves have a characteristic strong, sweet, spicy and pungent smell and taste. Clove is rich in minerals and vitamins (A and C). Clove oil is an essential oil obtained by steam distillation of the flower buds.
