Sage essential oil, certified organic
Sage (Salvia officinalis) is an evergreen perennial herb from the Lamiaceae family and is also known as common, garden, true, or Dalmatian sage. Native to the Mediterranean region, it grows to around 60cm tall with a woody base, soft grey-green leaves, and delicate blue to violet flowers. The leaves have been valued for centuries for their distinctive aromatic qualities and are steam distilled to produce a powerful, herbaceous essential oil.
