Sourcing

Why Nepal?

Spikenard grows in the sub-alpine and alpine region of the Himalaya of Nepal, China, and India. We source our spikenard from Nepal, where we support much needed income streams for harvesters and distillers.

How Does it Work?

Nepal

Spikenard is a flowering plant from the same family as valerian. It grows high in the Himalaya at elevations between 3,000 and 5,000 m. The plant grows to about 1 metre high and has small, pink, bell-shaped flowers.

Spikenard is an endangered plant so there are regulations on the amount and frequency of harvesting. All our spikenard is sourced in compliance with these regulations. We understand the importance of its protection and want to help ensure that this plant can be available for generations to come.

The dark green essential oil comes from the spikenard rhizomes, which are plant stems that grow underground. Roots usually grow from the rhizome. The harvest season is very short, usually only 15 to 20 days. After harvest, the spikenard rhizome is cleaned and then dried for several days before being distilled.
