The word thyme comes from the Greek thýon, meaning fragrant tree, and in ancient Greece it was highly valued for its gentle aromatic qualities, even replacing incense in religious rituals.

Thyme has traditionally been used as a culinary spice to add flavour and aroma to many recipes across different cultures. Its essential oil can also be used in this way, as well as in others you may not be familiar with, which we present here:

Why buy Hévéa organic thyme essential oil?

Essential oils are products for which only a few drops are needed for the intended use. To obtain the best results, it is essential that the oil is pure, without being mixed with other oils or additives that only diminish its quality. These and other indicators are what differentiate high-quality essential oils such as Hévéa thyme oil from others you may find on the market that are of lower quality.

Here are the main points to look for when buying a quality thyme essential oil:

Add to basket

100% pure, with no additives or blends

The purity of an essential oil should be the first thing to look for in a product like this. Hévéa organic thyme essential oil is not blended with any other oils, contains no additives, and includes no ingredients other than pure thyme essential oil.

Suitable for food use

Thyme has long been used as a culinary spice. Hévéa organic thyme essential oil is also suitable for food use, allowing you to use it in your recipes with the appropriate precautions and following the recommended usage guidelines. If diluted beforehand in honey or sugar, you can also prepare an infusion using this essential oil.

With organic certification

Organic cultivation ensures that no chemical compounds such as pesticides or artificial fertilisers have been used, nor genetically modified organisms. Thyme essential oil is a completely natural product from the very beginning.

Extracted by steam distillation

There are several methods for obtaining thyme essential oil. Hévéa uses steam distillation because, unlike other methods such as chemical solvents, it preserves the plant's properties and full purity, resulting in an essential oil of the highest quality.

Protective packaging

Essential oils are delicate substances because their volatile compounds deteriorate when exposed to air or sunlight, reducing their quality. Hévéa packages thyme essential oil in a tinted glass bottle that protects it from light. Likewise, its airtight seal prevents air from entering the bottle, keeping its properties intact while it is stored.
