Background
As one of the most important commodities in global trade and a major cash crop, coffee is undoubtedly the world’s most consumed beverage. An estimated 500 billion cups are consumed every day across the globe. The Coffea arabica plant belongs to the Rubiaceae family and can grow up to 2-5 metres in height. The plant prefers an average temperature of 15-24 degrees C and requires rainfall throughout the year. The essential oil derived from the coffee beans is valued for its immensely invigorating scent and potent mental health benefits.
General Information
Ecodrop’s Organic Coffee essential oil is derived from the coffee beans through the CO2 extraction method. Coffee beans are sourced from our organic Coffea arabica plantations in India, certified organic by the UK Soil Association. The CO2 extraction method involves low temperatures that ensure little to no nutrient loss during the process. The extracted oil is dark brown in colour, slightly viscous, and has a distinctive aroma similar to that of a freshly brewed cup of coffee.

Benefits and Uses
Uses
Aromatherapy: Coffee oil is incredibly reinvigorating for the senses and acts as a nervine tonic. It removes fatigue, reduces stress, and boosts mood. The stimulating aroma boosts metabolism and increases appetite. It is also a known aphrodisiac helping in stress-induced cases of low libido.
Brain tonic: Just like its beverage counterpart, Coffee oil is also a brain stimulant, except that it is a highly potent one. It enhances cognitive function and memory in children and adults alike. The active compounds of the oil protect the brain against the harmful effects of stress and inflammation, thus helping in age-related memory decline.
Skincare: Coffee essential oil is loaded with antioxidants that prevent the premature appearance of wrinkles and improve the elasticity of the skin. It supports the overall skin health by promoting moisture retention and absorption of nutrients.
Haircare: The caffeine content and astringent ability of the Coffee oil makes it an excellent hair growth potion. Regular scalp massage with a diluted version of this oil rejuvenates hair follicles and restores the colour pigment melanin, thus preventing premature greying of hair.
Breathing aid: Inhaling of vapours infused with Coffee oil eases breathing by clearing sinus congestions and soothing inflammation of the respiratory tract. It also helps calms the immune system to help in allergic reactions.
Headaches and pain management: The active compounds present in the Coffee oil possess potent analgesic abilities that help in headaches and muscle cramps.
