Color:
Colorless to pale yellow clear liquid
Common Uses:
The therapeutic properties of Tarragon Essential Oil, as claimed by aromatherapists, are as an anti-rheumatic, digestive, deodorant, emmenagogue, stimulant and vermifuge agent. There is also documentation indicating that it may be a menstrual regulator.
Aromatic Scent:
Tarragon Essential Oil has a richly sweet, anise-like (black licorice), green scent with spicy tones.
History:
The name is derived from the Arabic word ‘Tharkhoum’ and the Latin word ‘Dracunculus’ meaning ‘little dragon’ – probably because of the way the root seems to coil up like a dragon.
