Black Sage Harvest 2009

Oh my goodness we're up to our ears in Black Sage right now. Everyone has heard of White Sage, but Black Sage is my favorite of California's wild Sages. It is much more fruity and floral smelling than White Sage. We use this in our Coastal Sage soap, but I'm also distilling lots of it to make essential oils for potential new products including perfumes, essential oil diffusers, and possibly candles. I made a gorgeous Mt. Tamalpais perfume with essential oils of Bay Laurel, Redwood, Yerba Buena, Coyote Mint and Pitcher Sage - it's so nice! I'm going to give some samples of our new perfume/colognes away on facebook because I'd love to get your feedback, so stay tuned.
