25th March at 13.10pm: Apologies but my health has gone backwards rapidly in the past few days. After a conversation with Eleonora, at this moment running Hermitage is too much for us. Therefore the countries have all been temporarily removed and no orders can be placed. Please note orders received upto the time of this message will all be dispatched by today. Earlier messages now deleted from the orange banner but note I hope by mid to late next week I can get involved again with the business and reopen the website to E.U countries. New product releases, I have written content for five new aromatics and the plan was, and still is, to get to ten, and release them all in one lot. This will happen across early April. At the sametime the lab is finished, we have set up and we will get staff employed. Written as my own objective this year for the business remains the same, that being to end the stop start and get Hermitage in a position whereby it continues to flourish with or without my daily involvement. Thank you, Adam : | PS - We will reply to emails we may receive upon our return.

Adam Michael and Eleonora Scalseggi have this to say “Propolis is a resinous and highly aromatic substance harvested and further processed by honey bees from tree buds, saps, barks or other botanical sources. Propolis is used to seal and protect certain parts of the beehive from parasites and diseases.
Being locally harvested propolis varies greatly in colour and aroma profile chiefly depending on the variety of botanical species surrounding the hive. The propolis used for our tincture comes from central Italy and is reddish brown in colour and intensely aromatic. Tinctured and aged for no less than one year to allow all of its rich aromas to fully develop.
Briefly boozy and acidic in the head notes and then increasingly sweet, this 10% tincture displays rich, full-bodied sticky millefleur honey and waxy-balsamic qualities in the warm heart notes with a truly beautiful drydown. Just like honey and yellow beeswax should smell!
To be used sparingly because it tends to stain skin and fabrics of a golden yellow colour, this material adds depth to honey and heavy floral accords, works well with hay and tobacco accords and anywhere where a soft, smooth sweet warm note is needed.”

My secret ingredient to create an “animalic” twist on florals. A bit waxy. Do use caution because people have propolis allergies.
