Do you provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) for every batch?
Yes. Every production batch of cinnamon bark oil is released with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA). The COA is issued by our in-house QC lab after physical-chemical and instrumental testing, and each container is traceable back to its batch number.
