Piper Betle Essential Oil

Not many people have heard of piper betle essential oil (Piper betle) and even fewer have tried it. However, those who have tried it often find themselves falling in love with this understated yet powerful essential oil.

What is Piper Betle Essential Oil Made Of?

Then, it spread through tropical Asia and Malaysia. Since then, the betel plant is cultivated mostly in South Asia and Southeast Asian countries — from Pakistan to Papua New Guinea. Currently, India is the leading producer.

The betel plant is what you would call a creeper. Its semi-woody stems need a tree or pole for support. The plant thrives in well-drained high land and fertile soil. While it requires moist soil, it does not do well with excessive moisture. So, irrigation has to be frequent but light.

The plant has to reach approximately 150cm before it is harvested. This usually takes place during the monsoon season and lasts for about fifteen days to a month.

 

How is Piper Betle Essential Oil Extracted?

The aromatic piper betle essential oil is derived by steam distilling fresh betel leaves. Here, the harvested leaves are partially dried. Then hot pressurized steam is pushed through the leaves.

Next, the solution undergoes condensation and, finally, collected. Generally, piper betle essential oil is somewhere between amber to medium brown in color. This ultimately depends on the type of leaf used. Young leaves will usually return the highest yield.
