Essential Oils: Pines

The following species of Pines are native to Arizona (with the exception of the Calabrian Pine) and have notably different characteristics. The disinfectant qualities of Pine oil are well known, as Pine Sol has been a popular household cleaner since 1929. Like other conifers, the Pines are supportive to our respiratory and immune systems.

NEW! Calabrian Pine (Pinus eldarica)
Also known as Afghan Pine, this is a non native species that grows well in the arid Southwest. Collected in Sedona. This beautiful, light and uplifting pine oil has sweet top notes. Anti viral, antiseptic, analgesic, and immune supportive.

Pinyon Pine (Pinus edulis)
Gathered mainly in the Sedona and Flagstaff areas (4,000+ elevation). The unique aroma of this low elevation pine is a signature of the Southwest. It has tropical overtones, reminiscent of pineapple. A wonderful anti-infectious, antiinflammatory, and tonifying oil. It is supportive for the respiratory and urinary systems, and has a diaphoretic action. Use topically, diluted in a carrier oil over the chest, or diffused in a room for colds, flus and congestion. Also can be diluted and used topically over the lower abdomen for general urinary tract support and strengthening.

Pinyon Pine Cone (Pinus edulis)
Pinyon pines produce a bumper crop of cones once every 6-7 years.  We distill these cones when they have just fallen and still retain some green.  Less complex than the needle oil, its aroma is green, woody and smooth, with a hint of Bourbon.  It contains a small amount of Bourbonene (a non alcoholic, aromatic constituent). This is an excellent oil to add to antiseptic, skin healing salves.
