German Chamomile contains Azulene, a powerful anti-inflammatory agent. This blue crystal is not actually present in the plant, but forms in the oil and only a small quantity is needed. The quality is generally graded by the azulene content and good quality oil should contain between 4.5 to 5%. It is this azulene that gives the pure essential oil a deep blue color.New Directions Australia Pty Ltd. does not supply food grade raw materials and therefore cannot waive GST.
