tarragon oil
DESCRIPTION
Tarragon Oil occurs as a pale yellow to amber liquid having a delicate, spicy odor similar to fennel and sweet basil but characteristic of Tarragon Oil. It is the volatile oil obtained by steam distillation from the leaves, stems, and flowers of the plant Artemesia dracunculus L. (Fam. Asteraceae). It is soluble in most fixed oils and in an equal volume of mineral oil, occasionally becoming hazy on further dilution. It is relatively insoluble in propylene glycol, and is insoluble in glycerin.
