What is Spearmint Essential Oil?
Spearmint Essential Oil is the steam-distilled essential oil of Mentha spicata, in the Lamiaceae family,. It is drawn from the leaves and flowering tops of the plant. Unlike peppermint, spearmint is dominated by carvone rather than menthol.
About the oil
Spearmint essential oil is distilled from the leaves and flowering tops of Mentha spicata. Its dominant compound is carvone, typically 50 to 70 percent, rather than the menthol that dominates peppermint. As a result spearmint has a sweeter, softer mint character with far less of peppermint's sharp minty bite, and its menthol content is very low.
Spearmint is a longtime culinary mint and a familiar flavor in confectionery, and one parent of the peppermint hybrid.
Aroma and character
The aroma of spearmint oil is sweet and gently minty, without peppermint's intensity.

I go to the Herb Stomp locations on Belmont and Sandy. The staff there have always been knowledgeable, gracious, and welcoming. I particularly like discovering new products that I would not have ordering my purchases from an online vendor. 5/5 would go again.
