Grown and Distilled in Israel these Roses have a sweet rosey but delicate beauty and wonderful perfume not often found in modern hybrid tea roses. Most if not all Rose Hydrosols on the market are from tea roses These roses are an heirloom and with a wonderful aroma.
The flowers are renowned for their fine fragrance, and are commercially harvested for rose oil (either “rose otto” or “rose absolute”) used in perfumery and to make rose water and “rose concrete”. The flower petals are also edible. They may be used to flavor food, as a garnish, as an herbal tea, and preserved in sugar. It is the national flower of Iran.
It is not often mentioned or popular to to admit that Rosa damascena is actually rose hybrid, derived from Rosa gallica and Rosa moschata. There is some DNA analysis that has shown that a third species, Rosa fedtschenkoana, has made some genetic contributions to the Damask Rose (Rosa damascena).
About Hydrosols:
Known as Floral water distillates. Hydrosols are the aromatic remains following a plant or tree resin steam distillation or Hydro-distillation process with similar, but much less concentrated properties of essential oil, and these include some of the properties of the whole oil molecules that you cannot get from just the Essential oil. This is like getting a whole plant therapy in a bottle that can be applied to your skin
These living essence waters come from a collection of floral waters made from, garden herbs, flowers and trees that are pesticide and herbicide-free. Made from steam or Hydro distillation. Heirloom Rose is a rare treat from antique white roses.
These Hydrosols consist entirely of cellular botanical water, which includes unique water-soluble compounds and tiny droplets of essential oil that provide each hydrosol with distinct characteristics and benefits. These High -Quality Hydrosols contain the essence of the plant in every drop.
For centuries, the rose has symbolized beauty and love. The fragrance of the rose has been captured and preserved in the form of rose water by a steam method that can be traced to fairly ancient time in the Middle Eastern and later to the Indian subcontinents.
Recommended keeping these in the refrigerator for freshness. The healing benefits are the same as the essential oils.
