Botanical Background

Citrus bergamia is a small citrus tree belonging to the Rutaceae family. The fruit is cultivated primarily in southern Italy, where the Mediterranean climate provides ideal growing conditions for the production of high-quality bergamot oil.

The essential oil is obtained by cold pressing the peel of the fruit. For centuries, Bergamot has been prized in perfumery for its uniquely balanced aroma—combining the brightness of citrus with a gentle floral softness.

Its distinctive fragrance is also known worldwide as the flavouring used in the traditional Earl Grey tea blend.
