Peppermint
Mentha piperita
The peppermint plant is a hybrid of water mint and spearmint and was first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753. A high menthol content—like that found in the doTERRA Peppermint essential oil—distinguishes the best quality Peppermint oil from other products. Consistently one of doTERRA’s best sellers. Peppermint essential oil has a wide range of benefits such as flavouring desserts and entrees to freshening breath.

Sourcing
Why Oregon, USA?
Different climates and soils impact the chemical profile of the peppermint plant. The Pacific Northwest is an ideal climate for growing peppermint because of the high and consistent amounts of rainfall each year. This contributes to a high menthol content, which gives peppermint its minty aroma and flavour.
