Peppermint Oil (CAS #8006-90-4) | FCC Redistilled Natural Grade
Our premium Peppermint Oil is a 100% natural essential oil steam-distilled from the fresh, healthy aerial parts of flowering Mentha piperita L. plants. Carefully harvested and processed during the optimal growing season, the raw botanical materials ensure maximum active ingredient retention and superior overall oil quality. Depending on plant origin, climate conditions, and harvesting timing, the natural distillation yield ranges from 0.3% to 0.7%, representing a pure, concentrated, and fully natural botanical extract.
The oil can be further refined and rectified through professional redistillation technology to meet strict FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) grade standards, effectively removing impurities, heavy residues, and unpleasant odor components. Importantly, this peppermint oil is neither partially nor wholly dementholized. All natural menthol and active aromatic compounds are completely preserved, maintaining the original natural aroma strength, flavor intensity, and cooling effect of genuine peppermint essential oil.
Featuring an extremely fresh, powerful, and highly penetrating classic peppermint fragrance, the oil delivers a rich, layered aromatic performance with stable volatility and long-lasting scent retention. In sensory characteristics, it presents a distinct pungent and refreshing taste profile. When inhaled or tasted, it creates a strong, clean cooling sensation inside the mouth and throat, which is the typical signature feature of high-quality natural peppermint oil.
Uniformly presented as a clear yellow liquid at room temperature, our redistilled peppermint oil is pure, transparent, free of suspended solids, sediments, and abnormal turbidity. Strictly produced and inspected in accordance with FCC specifications, it is safe, stable, and highly suitable for food flavoring, beverage formulation, confectionery production, oral care products, daily fragrances, cosmetic applications, and industrial flavor additives.
With stable batch consistency, standardized processing procedures, and complete quality certification support, our peppermint oil ensures reliable quality for long-term bulk procurement and continuous industrial production.
