Ourselves

Who are we? A Brief History The English Chamomile Company, founded by Distillation Consultant Mick Gahagan, has been producing fine English chamomile for over ten years. Initially in Sussex, and more recently in Norfolk, UK, where we are now expanding into New Oils and Organic techniques of growing.
During this time, the policy of the English Chamomile Company has remained the same, to retain the traditional care and attention to detail in all aspects of essential oil production but at the same time, to develop the technology to continually improve products which have become world reknowned.
	The English Chamomile Company has pioneered the development of mobile distillation in the UK along with 'just in time' harvesting techniques to ensure the maximum quality of product deriving from the freshest possible source material.

What do we do?
Our main business has always been the growing and processing of English Chamomile (Anthemis nobilis) to produce essential oil, but from 2001 we have expanded our range of oils to include German Chamomile, English Peppermint, Melissa and Angelica. In addition, we both advise on essential oil production and construct specialised steam distillation equipment through our consultancy service and sister engineering company www.distillation.co.uk
From Soil... To create our world famous ' Pure Steam Distilled Essential Oil of English Chamomile' and a growing range of other oils, we control all aspects of production - growing the herb on our own land, and harvesting and processing the herb with our own custom built harvesting and distillation equipment. .
	...to Oil It is this control of every aspect of oil production that makes The English Chamomile Company's essential oils of a quality that is so sought after by discriminating buyers the world over.
The English Chamomile Company has built upon the tradition of Chamomile growing and processing in the UK and at the same time has been at the forefront of developments in improving the harvesting and processing technology for an increasing variety of essential oil crops.
