How Are ADM's Mint Oils Made?
ADM’s mint oils are made through a distillation process where oil from chopped mint hay is vaporized and then later condensed again over an hours-long process. Later, we filter our mint oils to remove water, clean them, and then test them for compliance against our stringent product specifications. Finally, our mint oils go through a redistillation, standardization, and blending process to create a variety of mint oils and flavors that meet the specific needs of our partners.
