MARKET INFO of Lime Oil Distilled Mexican

Latest Market Info: Jun, 2022

Crop was slightly delayed due to problematic weather conditions at the start of the winter season. Mexico heavily relies on both a winter season and a summer season for its total output of lime oil distilled, meaning that reduced volumes collected in the winter will lead to an overall reduced availability of oil. The harvest from Mexico's latest season has just started and we expect some recovery in terms of volume. However, suppliers are still backlogged with previous contracts that have yet to be fulfilled, meaning the product will likely remain tight.

Description of Lime Oil Distilled Mexican

Significantly different from the lime profile of more traditional cold-pressed oils, Lime Oil Distilled Mexican is derived from the fruits of Citrus aurantiifolia plants. Due to its distillation method, the oil’s more “lemony” characteristics are subdued, allowing the fruity’s piney, camphoraceous, and somewhat lilac-like top note to shrine through. Lime oil distilled also expresses a subtle sweetness, making it highly popular among beverages, particularly sodas and other soft drinks.
