German Chamomile contains azulene, a powerful anti-inflammatory agent. This blue crystal is not actually present in the plant, but forms in the oil and only a small quantity is needed. It is this azulene that gives the oil a deep blue color. Its quality is generally graded by the azulene content and good quality oil contains between 4.5 - 5%.

History: Derived from the Greek word meaning ‘Ground Apple’ and the Latin word ‘nobilis’, or noble, Chamomile is a plant of many uses. To the ancient Egyptians it was an herb ruled by the sun and thus believed to cure fevers, and by the moon because of its cooling ability.
