100 % PURE Witch Hazel Distillate - No alcohol, No chemicals

 

 

The finest witch hazel and natural floral essences  on the face of the earth - carefully crafted by people who care!  

What makes our products  extraordinary??

It starts in a healthy forest

It starts on pristine, remote, wild lands and with the natural alchemy of plants, water and soil. We work in healthy forests, rich in biodiversity. We harvest in places where  there are  often times a hundred different species, all interwined and interacting chemically. This wild, natural, interaction between species  helps to produce some of the best medicine plants on earth. In competing for light and nutrients wild plants grow  stronger than those row cropped, or cultivated in a field or  garden.

  Guided by experience and mother natures timeline - we only harvest when plants are perfectly ready. 

Our harvests are perfectly timed for the maixium phyto chemicals in the plant. Sometimes, flower heads have so much oil that it could litereally be squeezed out by hand.  We know the proper time to pick each species  and very thoughtfully plan our year's production based on the perfect timing.

 We harvest no plant before its time or after its prime!

 

Distillation Method

We seperate the living plant material from the boiling flask. No dumpting plant material into a can of boiling water, here!

 

 

We are grateful to Gary @ heart magic, who has worked with us since the begining!

 The following comes from Gary's Distillation site.:


Maintaining the entire biocontainer at exactly boiling temperature (100c) during production is very important for obtaining maximum quality and quantity of both essential oil and hydrosol. For big systems this usually isn't practical. Big remote steam-fed bio-chambers are usually just sitting out in open air, which by definition allows their walls to be cooled by that air, so some water condensation on the inside of those walls is always going to occur.


Any water that ends up in the biocontainer robs you of potential hydrosol, and also renders any biomaterial it comes in contact with undistillable, and the biomass touching the chamber walls may not get properly distilled at all.
It's a difficult problem... insulating the biocontainer is an answer, but costly and physically cumbersome. Also, in large steam-fed distillers that use separate steam generators, there a continual dance of controlling pressure and temperature of the steam going into the biochamber- tricky to get right.

We've come up with a deceptively clever way around all of this...to keep the biocontainer dry and insulated and not have to hassle with steam pressure or temperature, we simply put the entire biocontainer inside of the boiling chamber!!
Quite different than simply chucking the biomass into the same vessel as the boiling water, we build an entirely separate housing inside of the boiling chamber, and then put the biomass in that "inner" housing.
It makes sense... this way the entire biocontainer is surrounded inside and out by 100 degree steam- Thus the entire system works at exactly 100 degrees c, and the biocontainer stays dry because it cannot condense any water on it's walls.

We do not strip the forest. There is no roller chopping, skidding, or destruction on ouSEE OUR LABRATORY REPORTS ON PURITYr lands.

 Compare our harvest to industrial witch hazel harvests.

We are fair trade:

Our  harvesters make 50.00 or  more a day and are  paid by the lb not by the ton.

 

We use human and animal power to bring 

fresh witch hazel herb out of the forest.
