Not many people recognize Juniper, despite it being an original and ancient inhabitant throughout Europe. Many of you enthusiasts do know that the juniper berry is an essential ingredient for making a famous drink. However, for this Corsican dwarf juniper oil, only the aromatic twigs have been distilled, twigs that in earlier times would be burned to drive away evil spirits with the smoke. A bit like cleansing with gin—just a little of what ails you?
