Cornmint Essential Oil (Mentha arvensis)
Cornmint Essential Oil is steam distilled from the aerial parts of Mentha arvensis, a vigorous mint species cultivated in the mid-hill and lowland Terai regions of Nepal. Favorable climate and soil conditions contribute to a high-quality oil valued by global manufacturers and formulators.
Botanical Origin & Regional Background
Cornmint grows abundantly in Nepal’s lowland plains and mid-mountain areas and is now widely cultivated in the Terai region. The herb has long been used in household and traditional practices, particularly for aromatic, cleansing, and refreshing applications.
Mint-based preparations have historically been part of daily routines in South Asia, including oral care and aromatic uses.
Extraction Method
This essential oil is obtained through steam distillation of the fresh aerial parts. Our Cornmint Oil is produced from a single-cut (first cut) distillation, preserving a bright, clean aroma and robust aromatic profile.
The oil is supplied raw and unblended, with a naturally high menthol content exceeding 70%, making it highly sought after for professional formulation.
