Fever Tea ORGANIC E.O
Adam Michael has this to say “Smelling the aroma of Fever Tea Essential Oil is a rich, uplifting-fruity experience with lots of tropical fruit sweetness and delicate boozy hop infused fruit undertones throughout. Also this aroma is reminiscent to me of pouring sticky mango juice into a glass on a hot summer’s day and serving with lashings of ice cubes. The colour is pale orange and of a pourable viscosity. As for uses this material is a must for building tropical fruit accords, is a must for building juicy mango notes and pairs beautifully with our mango leaf absolute.”
Fever Tea Essential Oil is also known as Wild Verbena and in this instance is obtained by steam distilling the leaves and stems. Growing location and time of extraction clearly have a serious bearing on the chemistry with absolutely huge fluctuations in percentages of Myrcene, Geraniol, and Linalool (1%-50%) reported which will alter the aroma profile greatly and may explain why my reading material suggests aroma profiles I do not detect at all with the batches I have sampled.

Lovely mango or nectarine rind aroma with a fresh uplifting wild mint peppery undertone. Like Adam says blends beautifully with mango leaf though I have had some success experimenting with cardamom abs and jasmine as well

I bought this due to the sale, far too affordable to say no to! This was a surprising material that I’m still learning. It’s very green, bitter green tropical fruity in the direction of mango skin or even dare I say, that bitter tropical note within passion fruit skin. It does have notes of hops, but not too much that it shouts “hops/beer”. A fascinating material that is both tropical, and bitter green herbal in profile. My experiments with it continue.
