Descriptions
Comment (FraterWork)
Peppermint oil is one of the most abused and adulterated oils in the fragrance
industry, with large quantities of the most common oils (Indian and American)
really being cornmint that has been stripped of menthol for the pharmaceutical
industry. True French oil is the standard bearer of quality. But there is one
other peppermint on the market that blows even the French out of the water: fine
aged Peppermint Oil “Black Mitcham” indigenous to England and, after a period of
extinction from those green isles, restored to its glory in recent years.
Pining for the superior peppermint oil of his youth, Sir Michael Colman (of the
Colman's Mustard family) sought out, discovered in far distant America, and
restored this glorious plant to its native land where it has now thrived across
generations.
The black mitchan oil that we stock at Fraterworks is the very oil from Sir
Michael's family estate in England. The Colman family produce the oil and age it
for two years ensuring utter perfection.
Dating back to the 1750s, Peppermint oil "Black Mitcham" is the supreme
peppermint. It is the peppermint of candy canes, peppermint creams, and all
things wonderfully Wonka. In a side by side comparison with finest French
peppermint oil, Black Mitcham is distinctly gourmand. It has a sweetness and
even a subtle floralcy that is lacking in the French. Additionally, due to the
aging the oil undergoes, the penetrating top notes common to oils of the
mentha piperita family are tempered, allowing the full harmony of the oil to
be taken in at first sniff.
