What does this green mandarin oil look like — appearance, color, and consistency?
TPS-RO-012 is a clear, mobile liquid in pale green to yellow-green shades — the greenest colour of any citrus oil, reflecting its unripe-peel origin. It flows freely at room temperature with no turbidity or sediment.

- The green shade comes from unripe peel chlorophyll; it fades gradually with light and age — store sealed and dark to keep the colour
- The density window 0.845-0.860 matches the ISO 3528:2012 Green grade (0.847-0.855), FCC 12 Regular type, and the leading EU industrial TDS specs
- Winterization removes wax and pectin so the oil stays brilliantly clear even when chilled (FCC cooling test)
- No artificial colour is added — the natural green comes only from the young peel
