The Finca Botanica Farm Collection features four rare essential oils from plants cultivated at Young Living’s Finca Botanica Farm and Distillery in Chongon, Ecuador: Incan Melissa, Paicotea, Ecuadorian Ylang Ylang, and Palo Santo.
Construction of the Finca Botanica Farm and Distillery was a passion project for Young Living Founder D. Gary Young. The unique microclimate in this region of Ecuador supports year-round cultivation, with rich soil and lush surroundings. Today Young Living actively farms 2,000 acres at Finca Botanica, producing several unique essential oils, including the four essential oils in this collection: Incan Melissa, Paicotea, Ecuadorian Ylang Ylang, and Palo Santo. This collection celebrates the unique biodiversity of the farm and highlights Young Living’s commitment to sustainability and ethical sourcing. Enjoy this bouquet of exotic oils and their benefits, individually or combined.
The farm supports the livelihood of Ecuadorian natives, with whom Young Living contracts to gather wildcrafted Palo Santo, Paicotea, and Ocotea.
Incan Melissa essential oil is a new, Young Living exclusive essential oil extracted from Lippia alba. Named to reflect its historical use by the Inca and its chemical composition similar to Melissa essential oil, it has a fresh, citrusy aroma similar to Lemon Verbena, making it useful for refreshing the air and neutralizing unwanted odors.
Paicotea essential oil is a new, Young Living-exclusive essential oil extracted from wildcrafted leaves and branches of Ocotea aciphylla, an Amazonian tree related to Ocotea. It has a warm, spicy aroma similar to but more delicate than Cinnamon Bark essential oil, making it a great addition to bath and body care recipes and home cleaning solutions.
Ecuadorian Ylang Ylang essential oil promotes the appearance of healthy-looking skin and shiny hair, with a calming aroma that sets the mood for romance. As a result of the unique growing conditions at Finca Botanica, Ecuadorian Ylang Ylang has a softer, smoother aroma than that distilled in Madagascar. Ecuadorian Ylang Ylang is a Young Living exclusive.
Palo Santo essential oil is extracted from dead trees and fallen branches sustainably wildcrafted in the Ecuadorian highlands. Related to Frankincense and Myrrh, it was traditionally used in spiritual practices and has an alluring, smooth, and creamy wood aroma that can be used to elevate your yoga, meditation, or spiritual experiences.
