## About
Sit with the open bottle a while and you may find yourself somewhere else: a cabin in woods where no one has ever been, the smell of Christmas in the cold air. This is not an oil for concentrating. It takes you away.It comes from the artisans who make our Piñon Pine Hydrosol. They trim twigs only a few inches long, just a few cuttings from each tree and from all directions, so their foraging cannot be seen, and when they have finished an area they hold a ceremony thanking the trees for their gifts. As they gather, they watch for the pitch, the resin the trees produce, and from resin and branches together they hydrodistilled a special batch of this oil.Piñon resin has historically been used as incense and for meditation. The oil is balsamic and resinous, and far thinner than you would expect: it pours freely from the dropper. No GC/MS analysis exists for it yet, so its components remain a quiet mystery.DetailsBotanical name: Pinus edulisPlant parts: resin and branchesMethod: hydrodistillation, by artisan distillersHow to useLet a drop rest on a scent strip or in a diffuser during meditation or a quiet evening.
