Quality and traceability

Quality you can trace

The right plants

We start with carefully identified plant varieties and keep them separate from seed to shipment.

Fresh from the field

Plants are processed within hours of harvest, keeping the scent fresh and the quality consistent.

Lab tested

Advanced laboratory analysis (GC-MS and HPLC) checks the make-up of every batch.

Full paperwork

Each batch comes with a certificate of analysis, product sheets, safety documents and a kept reference sample.

Fully traceable

Every batch is linked to its field, plant variety, harvest date and processing record.

Responsibly gathered

Wild plants and resins are gathered legally, with permission, and in ways that let them regrow.

Our on-farm distillery

Our distillery is designed to sit right on the farm, and its capacity grows step by step with our crops.

Every detail recorded

Each batch records its plant variety, field, harvest date, plant weight, extraction settings, yield, storage, lab report and reference sample.

Trusted partners

Independent accredited laboratories and specialist CO₂ extraction and refining (fractionation) partners work alongside our team.
