Ancient Rose Water Secrets: Traditional Distillation in Our Historic Mill
Discover the centuries-old techniques we use to create our signature rose water, distilled in copper stills within our 19th-century flour mill.
In the heart of our 19th-century flour mill, where the gentle sound of the water wheel creates a meditative rhythm, we practice the ancient art of rose water distillation. This time-honored process, passed down through generations, transforms delicate rose petals into liquid gold.
The Sacred Process
Our distillation process begins at dawn, when the roses are at their most fragrant. We hand-pick each petal from our organic rose gardens, ensuring only the finest blooms make their way into our copper stills. The copper vessels, aged and seasoned by decades of use, impart their own subtle character to the final product.
The distillation process is both science and art. Steam gently carries the essential oils from the rose petals, condensing into pure rose water that captures the very essence of the flower. This process takes several hours, requiring patience and careful attention to temperature and timing.
Historical Significance
Rose water has been treasured for over a thousand years, prized by ancient civilizations for its therapeutic and cosmetic properties. In our mill, we honor this heritage by maintaining traditional methods while ensuring the highest standards of purity and quality.
The mill's stone walls and wooden beams seem to hold the memories of countless distillations, creating an atmosphere where tradition and craftsmanship converge. Each batch of rose water we produce carries with it the spirit of this historic place.
