-Sustainable initiatives for holy basil-

Holy basil is a subtropical plant that is said to be native to India.

In India, it is considered to be the highest-ranking herb among the herbs used in traditional medicine "Ayurveda".
It was used in a clear distinction from other herbs.
In Sanskrit, "Tulsi" (an incomparable thing), in Hinduism, it is an incarnation of the goddess Lakshmi and is worshiped as a sacred plant, and in Mexico it is a plant that brings good luck and is carried in a pocket.

Holy basil, chamomile, reishi mushroom, etc. are herbs that are classified as “adaptogen herbs”.
It is considered to be an effective herb that directly works on stress as the main efficacy to be noted,
In addition, it is said to have excellent antioxidant and antibacterial properties.
In order to elucidate the whole picture of holy basil cultivated at Cape Sata,
We have started joint research with the Faculty of Agriculture, Kagoshima University.

Cape Sata, where the fields are located, is located on the 31°C north latitude line, which is almost the same latitude as New Delhi in India, so holy basil grows thick and fresh.
At Botanikanon, we have contracted cultivation of approximately 4,000 square meters near Cape Sata, the southernmost tip of the Osumi Peninsula in Kagoshima Prefecture, where we grow our beans without the use of pesticides.

Holy basil is sown in March and harvested in late July.
We harvest about 2 tons of fresh leaves each year.
The unharvested holy basil is then incorporated into the soil as 'green manure' as nutrients for the cultivation of the next crop, 'kale'.
Every year, during the summer, a large amount of holy basil is plowed into the field to prevent continuous cropping failure, and it also contributes to the natural cultivation of kale, which is the main business of the farmers. think.

Be especially careful when harvesting. Harvesting in the summer is quick to bruise,
The fruits harvested early in the morning are transported to a nearby freezer in the early afternoon and instantly frozen.
Always kept fresh for use.

About fragrance

~Proven special manufacturing method~

Our factory receives many orders to manufacture natural cosmetics from all over the country.
Among them, this special manufacturing method has a reputation for making balms, and we have continued to make many products because other companies cannot produce similar products.

At Botanikanon, we spent a lot of time making prototypes to create the highest quality whipped balm by bringing together all the technologies we have accumulated so far.

No surfactants are used, and water and oil are mixed at high speed using only beeswax, while entraining air, creating a unique texture that feels like lightened butter.
And finally, each one is carefully hand-crafted like filling sweets with bean paste.
The finished balm has a smooth and unique feel, so please try it.

About the use of bio-fermented ethanol as an extract extraction solvent

Holy basil contains a large amount of eugenol, one of the aromatic components contained in essential oils. This eugenol is said to have many effects such as immune-boosting, antibacterial, antiviral, and analgesic effects. In order to effectively extract the plant extract components that are useful for the skin and the body, ethanol, which can simultaneously extract oil-soluble and water-soluble components, is indispensable, resulting in the best results for the skin and body. I decided to use it because I could derive it. One of Botanikanon's brand concepts is "ethanol-free", but only for the adaptogen herb "holy basil extract", we use "vegetable (sugar cane-derived) bio-fermented ethanol". I decided to

However, we will continue to use sugarcane-derived BG extracts for our facial skin care products, and will continue to refrain from using ethanol.
(We use sugarcane-derived BG extract for holy basil lotion, essence, and milky lotion.)

In addition, the products that use or change the holy basil extract using bio-fermented ethanol are the following two products.

Both BC-B005 Holy Basil Bath Essence and Holy Basil Infused Balm will be used as extracting solvents for the purpose of extracting “fragrant ingredients” and “useful ingredients for your skin”.
Thank you for your understanding.
