How is this tangerine oil extracted, and which method is preferred?
G4S uses Steam distillation for this grade. The peel is steam-distilled at low pressure, which gives a clean, sweet profile without solvent contact and without the heavy residue of an expressed oil.
Why this route
- No solvent is used, so there is no solvent-residue carry-over to declare.
- Temperature stays low, which protects the aldehydes and the fresh peel top notes.
- The natural marker ratios of the peel are kept intact rather than rebuilt from fractions.
The process route, the batch yield and the key operating parameters are recorded on the batch file, and the COA states which route was used.
