Actually, most Eucalyptus Globulous is rectified to increase the proportion

of 1.8 cineole... Peppermint is often rectified to increase the level of

menthol.

 

(We offer two Euc. Globulous...one is unrectified, the other is

rectified... the first is much softer and deeper, aromatically, the second

is what most folks " expect " when they smell Eucalyptus Globulous.)
