Thyme hydrosol or floral water

Simply put, a hydrolat is the aromatic water obtained during the distillation process of a plant. When steam passes through the plant material, it carries with it the most volatile and aromatic molecules of the plant. Upon condensation, these molecules separate into two distinct substances: essential oils on one side, and hydrolat on the other. Hydrolat is the living water imbued with a small amount of essential oil dispersed within it, plus all the more volatile water-soluble molecules of the plant.

It is a complete product, distinct from essential oil, even though they originate from the same plant, the same fire, and the same moment. If properly prepared, it is one of the most valuable, delicate, and complete plant extracts available.

Hydrosols have the advantage of having no contraindications and containing water-soluble active ingredients that are not present in essential oil. Being aromatic water, our body assimilates them naturally and gently. The results, from a physical and emotional point of view, can be spectacular, especially when used internally.

In the kitchen: they flavor infusions, smoothies, juices, sweets, and stews. One teaspoon per 500 ml of liquid is enough to transform a recipe.

At home: ideal for cleaning and aromatizing spaces in spray bottles, adding to humidifiers, using as ironing water, or as a cleaning product in bathrooms and kitchens.

On the skin: They are perfect for making all kinds of cosmetics, such as toners, creams, shampoos, and lotions. They are excellent for relieving eczema, wounds, or psoriasis, and for beautifying, regenerating, and protecting the skin. We can apply them directly with a cotton pad, in compresses, in bath water, or in spray bottles.

Internal use: one tablespoon diluted in one liter of water to be sipped throughout the day, or one teaspoon in a glass of warm water, three times a day. It is important that the hydrosol is food-grade and does not contain preservatives.
