Our Highland Frankincense Essential Oils are steam distilled in our distillation facility in Dubai from authentic Highland Boswellia carterii Frankincense and Highland Boswellia frereana Frankincense oleogum-resins. Our resins are superior to the lower quality, mutated-grade common to the lowlands in that they contain minimal-to-no traces of decyl methyl ether and octyl acetate components. We are the only Frankincense oil producer to sample-distill and sample-test the quality of bulk oleogum-resins at source within Somalia prior to sorting and grading. This enables us to isolate the highest quality resins for our oil production.
