Kumquats come in many varieties, each bringing its own unique character to the essential oil world. Among these, the round Marumi, oval Nagami, and late Meiwa cultivars are closely related genetically, but their essential oils offer distinct aromas that shift beautifully with fruit maturity, also influencing their antioxidant properties.
Our essential oil is carefully extracted from ripe Nagami kumquats, delivering a vibrant and uplifting citrus experience. For those seeking a fresher, greener profile, we also offer extraction from immature green fruit on request.
Bright, cheerful, and quintessentially citrus, kumquat essential oil is stimulating and versatile, making it a perfect choice for a variety of uses.
