Steam-distilled from Oregon's Willamette Valley. High-menthol peppermint that you feel the moment you smell it.

This isn't just peppermint. It's Willamette Valley peppermint, grown in Oregon where the unique climate produces plants with exceptionally high menthol content. That matters. The menthol is what creates that sharp, cool sensation that cuts through mental fog and makes you feel awake. Weak peppermint oil smells nice. This one actually does something.

Peppermint is the multi-tool of essential oils. Diffuse it when you need to focus. Dilute it and rub it on sore muscles for that cooling tingle. Add it to DIY balms and salves. Mix it with eucalyptus when you're congested. It's not subtle and it's not trying to be. The moment you smell it, you feel it. That's the menthol at work.

We source directly from Oregon growers because supporting local farms is a core value, and because it happens to give us a superior, more vibrant oil. The crisp, clean scent is noticeably different from generic peppermint oils you'll find elsewhere.

Why You'll Love The Peppermint Essential Oil

  • High-menthol Oregon peppermint: Willamette Valley's climate produces peppermint with exceptional menthol content. You'll notice the difference in potency and clarity.
  • Clears mental fog: Diffuse while working, studying, or anytime you need to think clearly. The menthol cuts through sluggishness faster than coffee.
  • Cooling muscle relief: Dilute with a carrier oil and apply to sore muscles, temples, or the back of your neck. That cooling sensation isn't just pleasant; it's doing something.
  • Respiratory support: Add to a bowl of steaming water and breathe deep when you're congested. Pairs well with eucalyptus for extra clearing power.
  • DIY ingredient: Add to homemade balms, salves, lotions, or cleaning products. A little goes a long way with oil this potent.

Key Ingredients

Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Leaf Oil
Steam-distilled from Oregon Willamette Valley peppermint leaves. The high menthol content creates that signature cooling sensation that awakens the mind and soothes tired muscles. We balance the intensity carefully in our finished products, but here you get it pure and undiluted.

How to Use It

Diffusing: 5-10 drops in an ultrasonic diffuser. Peppermint is strong, so start with less and add more if needed. Topical: Always dilute first. 2-3 drops per tablespoon of carrier oil. Apply to temples, back of neck, or sore muscles. Avoid eyes and sensitive areas. Steam inhalation: Add 3-5 drops to a bowl of hot water, tent a towel over your head, and breathe. Old school but effective.

Cooling sensation note: Peppermint oil creates a strong cooling effect on skin. Always dilute before applying, start with less than you think you need, and keep away from eyes and mucous membranes. Not recommended for use on children under 6.

Goes Well With

  • Essential Oil Mist Diffuser: The modern way to diffuse. Whisper-quiet ultrasonic mist fills your workspace with focus-enhancing peppermint. Add 5-8 drops and get to work.
  • Eucalyptus Essential Oil: The clearing combo. Peppermint and eucalyptus together open up everything. Diffuse both when you're congested or need serious respiratory support.
  • Lavender Essential Oil: The balancing act. Peppermint alone can be intense. Add lavender to soften it for evening use, or create a tension-relief blend for temples and neck.

Oregon-grown. High-menthol. 10ml of the focus oil.

Q: Can I put this directly on my skin?

A: Always dilute peppermint oil first. It's potent and the menthol creates a strong cooling sensation that can irritate skin if used undiluted. Mix 2-3 drops with a tablespoon of carrier oil like jojoba or sweet almond before applying. And keep it away from your eyes.

Q: Will this help with headaches?

A: Many people find peppermint oil helpful for tension headaches when diluted and applied to the temples or back of the neck. The cooling sensation and high menthol content can be soothing. That said, we can't make medical claims. If you have chronic headaches, talk to a healthcare provider.

Q: How is this different from peppermint extract?

A: Peppermint extract is made for cooking and baking. It's diluted in alcohol and safe to ingest. This is pure essential oil, much more concentrated and formulated for aromatherapy and topical use. Don't substitute one for the other.
