This variety of Hiba Essential Oil is extracted from trees harvested on the Noto Peninsula located in Ishikawa Prefecture in Japan. The wood is traditionally used as building materials to construct Shrines and temples as well as for traditional crafts such as well as Wajima Nuri Lacquer ware.
Noto Hiba essential oil contains a lot of hinokitiol in its composition, which is said to have excellent bactericidal and antibacterial effects, as well as anti-fungal (mold) and mite preventative properties.
