Organic Peppermint Essential Oil
Organic Peppermint is a fast growing perennial with herb with green stems and leaves and small white flowers. Peppermint is the main kind of mind used in Aromatherapy. We also sell Mitcham Peppermint, which is a slightly different variety and more reminiscent of the scent you will find in Mint Chocolates..
