Black Pepper Oil

The aroma of Black Pepper Essential Oil is reminiscent to freshly ground peppercorns, but it is a bit more complex with hints of green and perhaps a bit of floral. Black Pepper Essential Oil has one major advantage: it doesn’t irritate your eyes or make you sneeze like ground peppercorns can. Black pepper (piper nigrum) is harvested when the seeds are green, which are dried and then steam distilled to create essential oil. Steam distillation is one of the most popular forms of extraction and works by vaporizing the volatile compounds found within the black pepper seeds to create a 100% pure essential oil.
