DESCRIPTION
Bergamot (Calabrian) Essential Oil is derived from the fruit of the Citrus bergamia tree that can reach up to four meters in height. This tree is distinguished by its star-shaped flowers and smooth, glossy leaves. The fruit it bears is unique, resembling a cross between an orange and a grapefruit, yet with a distinct pear-like shape. As the fruit matures, it transitions from a vibrant green to a rich yellow, signaling its ripeness.
The name "Bergamot" is steeped in history, tracing back to the city of Bergamo in Lombardy, Italy, where this precious oil was first introduced to the world. Today, Bergamot Essential Oil, particularly from the Calabrian region, is celebrated for its exceptional quality and versatility, making it a staple ingredient in aromatherapy, skin care, and more.
