Burgundy Blackcurrant Organic Hydrosol

Botanical name: Ribes Nigrum
Plant part: Buds
Origin: France

The Blackcurrant plant (Ribes nigrum) is a deciduous shrub native to northern Europe and parts of Asia, prized for its nutrient-rich berries, aromatic leaves, and versatile medicinal uses. Growing up to 1.5 meters in height, the plant thrives in temperate climates and is known for its clusters of small, glossy black berries that ripen in summer.

These berries are packed with antioxidants, vitamin C, and anthocyanins, making them a powerhouse for health. The leaves, rich in essential oils and active compounds, have traditionally been used in herbal remedies for their anti-inflammatory and diuretic properties.

Blackcurrant is not only a staple in culinary delights like jams and syrups but also plays a vital role in natural medicine for its ability to support skin health, joint function, and overall vitality. Its distinctive tart flavor and rich botanical benefits make it a celebrated plant in both traditional and modern wellness practices.

Ribes Nigrum
Plant part: Buds

Hydrosols are created in the same process as essential oils - through gentle steam distillation. When steam passes through the fresh plant material, it carries with it both the essential oil and water-soluble aromatic molecules from the plant.

Once cooled, the essential oil naturally separates and rises to the surface, while the aromatic water underneath is the hydrosol. This hydrosol is pure spring water enriched with the plant’s own active compounds - like a delicate imprint of the whole plant.

The distillation process is slow and careful, allowing the hydrosol to gather all the lighter and heavier aromatic notes so that it becomes a complete, true reflection of the plant. Afterward, it’s gently filtered and bottled - nothing else is added. No preservatives, no alcohol, no synthetic fragrances.

This is why a plant hydrosol is not just ‘flavored water,’ but a living extract full of the plant’s natural vibrancy, carrying both therapeutic and sensory qualities.
