La Plante Quercy juniper
Partie de la plante: Berry Branch
Origine: France
Native to Europe, Juniper is a conifer of the Cupressaceae family. This snarling bush-like plant can be found at altitudes of up to 2,500 m. Juniper develops berries in its second year of growth. Their characteristic flavor has given the plant its clever name, derived from the Celtic word juneprus meaning pungent. In the 16th century, Juniper berries were considered a panacea, a universal antidote. It was said that those who ate a juniper berry every day were spared from disease.
Today, Juniper berries are used for their diuretic and aperitive virtues, in addition to their nutritional qualities. The aroma given off by the Essential Oil obtained by distillation of the berries and young twigs is sweet, woody and slightly fruity. The essential oil is composed mainly of mono and sesquiterpenes, and can be enjoyed by the skin or in the bath to restore a feeling of lightness.
