FAQ

Can juniper berries be used directly?
Juniper berries are used in cooking as a spice (sauerkraut, game). The essential oil distilled from the berries is much more concentrated and is only used in aromatherapy, highly diluted.

What is the difference between Juniper berry and twig essential oil?
The berry EO (Juniperus communis berries) is richer in monoterpenes and more aromatic. The twig or wood EO is richer in sesquiterpenes (cedrol) and is woodier. The berry version is preferred in traditional aromatherapy.

Can juniper be combined with cypress in diffusion?
Yes, it is one of the most classic forest-woody accords. Juniper (peppery-coniferous notes) + cypress (woody-dry notes) create a very soothing Nordic accord.
