Product Background
Peppermint is originally from Europe, but 75 percent of the world’s supply is now grown in the United States.

One 15-ml bottle of Peppermint essential oil is created by steam distilling 1 pound of the leaves and flowering tops of the peppermint plant. Peppermint is a key ingredient in PanAway®, Cool Azul®, and Deep Relief™ Roll-On.
