This zesty, invigorating citrus fruit is the essence of sunshine. Grown in such warm climates as Florida, the majestic grapefruit tree produces a bounty of perfectly formed yellow-orange orbs nestled among dark green leaves. Grapefruits have sturdy smooth rinds that envelop a pale yellow, pink or ruby red interior. Grapefruit essential oil is a direct by-product of the juicing process and truly captures the fruit’s broad spectrum benefits.

History of Grapefruit
About 300 years old, the grapefruit is considered to be a “youngster” compared to its fruity siblings. Its origins are a botanical mystery, speculated to be a hybrid of the sour shaddock (citrus maximus) and sweet orange. Its popularity quickly soared, as most anyone who sliced into a juicy grapefruit became hooked on its citrusy zing, making it a morning favorite. Beloved for its warm, sweet aromas, grapefruit oil releases negativity and evokes joy!
