Birch oil, Sweet, Commercial

Birch, Sweet oil, USA - This commericial grade oil is purchased as Birch oil however, it is believed by Dr. Pappas that true steam distilled Birch oil is no longer produced commercially on large scale because it is not economically feasible to compete with other products such as wintergreen oil which, in terms of chemistry, is practically identical. The low price of this so called "birch oil" would also seem to indicate the dubious nature of its authenticity.  Recently though, Dr. P has located some amazing quality Adirondack Birch oil that is produced by a family distillery on a very small scale and is the only authentic birch oil known to be on the market today (see Birch, Adirondack in the EO list).
