Our family owned distillery is set in midst the South Tyrolean Alps at 850 m sea level. Our name stands for tradition - we have produced essential oils and herb products for three generations since 1912. The plants used for our essential oils are sometimes harvested under difficult conditions.

The raw material derives from high alpine pastures. Our local rangers control the yearly growth of mountain pine as well as pine juniper and support our ethical principles according to which we harvest these plants. Our yearly cut serves to maintain

Equally small branches of mountain pine, spruce, pine etc. are gathered with great effort at a normal logging and transported to our distillery. Other plants like thyme, lavender, pepper mint etc. are derived by certified organic agriculture.
Fresh plant material arrives to the distillery. By means of steam distillation essential oil is won.

The hot cooling water is piped to two hotels situated in our nearby village and thus used for distance heating. Incontaminated clean water derived from our own springs serves for the production of steam and cooling.
