Wintergreen Oil

Wintergreen, characterized by its active compound methyl salicylate, has a distinctively minty, sharp, and sweet aroma and taste. The fragrance is penetrating and refreshing, often reminiscent of peppermint but with its own unique twist. The taste is similarly cool and minty, providing a tingling sensation on the palate. It’s a flavor and aroma that are commonly associated with products like chewing gum, breath mints, and traditional root beer. In beverages, wintergreen offers a burst of invigorating freshness and is often used to counterbalance sweeter or earthier components.
