Peppermint Premium essential oil, an artisan oil from the upper Midwest USA, grown without the use of pesticides, contains an above-average menthol content of 40% and smells sweet as candy. We currently offer two other Peppermint essential oils, an organic and an ethical farmed, both from India. The difference between this peppermint and the peppermint oils we offer from India is that this one has a higher-than-average menthol content and, thus, a bold and fresh green minty note. Peppermint Premium is a very stimulating essential oil and glorious in a foot bath for tired aching feet.
If looking for a silky sweet Peppermint essential oil with average menthol content (33%) see Peppermint Organic from India and our standard Peppermint also from India.
