<<0>> europe is the home of many of doterra's
<<3>> most beloved
<<4>> essential oils doterra's lavender is
<<7>> distilled in esoteri
<<9>> this facility has drastically changed
<<11>> the agricultural scene in the region
<<13>> by paying fair and on-time wages
<<16>> introducing new industry standards for
<<18>> workers rights and essential oil quality
<<20>> esatere has grown to become the largest
<<23>> distillery in bulgaria
<<25>> esotere currently employs a total of 260
<<28>> employees
<<29>> both permanent and seasonal the short
<<32>> supply chain
<<33>> allows doterra to have full control and
<<35>> trust over the quality
<<37>> and purity of its essential oils
<<41>> helichrysum is characterized by its
<<43>> bright yellow flowers that have a
<<45>> distinct
<<46>> curry powder-like smell and a long
<<48>> history of use
<<49>> this perennial herb is sourced in
<<51>> albania as part of doterra's co-impact
<<54>> sourcing program
<<56>> because of the significant benefits of
<<58>> helichrysum for skin
<<59>> it is often referred to as the
<<61>> everlasting or immortal flower
<<64>> albania has a long history of growing
<<66>> helichrysum
<<67>> but the business practices were far from
<<69>> ideal
<<70>> it was the norm for farmers to get
<<72>> delayed payments or no payment at all
<<74>> our partners on the ground were able to
<<76>> start creating trusting relationships
<<78>> with local farmers
<<79>> and sign long-term contracts that
<<82>> guarantee financial stability
<<86>> rose oil is derived from the damask rose
<<89>> a shrub that originally hailed from
<<91>> damascus the capital of syria
<<93>> though today doterra sources rose oil
<<96>> from bulgaria
<<97>> with the growing demand for rose
<<99>> essential oil doterra decided to build a
<<101>> new distillery in the heart of the
<<103>> bulgarian rose valley
<<105>> to source this treasured essential oil
<<107>> its strategic position allows doterra to
<<110>> start distilling the rose blossoms right
<<112>> after picking
<<113>> which is very important to preserve the
<<115>> plant properties
<<117>> paired with well-timed harvesting
<<119>> precise logistics
<<120>> careful water distillation and rigorous
<<122>> testing
<<123>> make a 100 pure rose essential oil
