Essential Oils

Vassilis – Colibri Essential Oils

The plants are wild-harvested by hand in selected areas in Naxos and Peloponnese, as far as possible from any kind of pollution and urbanized areas. The collect of the herbs is done, as much as possible, according to the moon calendar. The distillations are done in a small stainless steel still and the essential oils are then stored in dark glass bottles.
