About This Product
Fennel Oleoresin
Fennel oleoresin is a full-spectrum extract of premium Gujarat bold green fennel seeds — capturing both the volatile oil fraction (20%+, dominated by trans-anethole at 70%+) and the fixed oil fraction in a single concentrated extract. It delivers the characteristic sweet, anise-like, slightly warm character of quality Gujarat saunf — in a convenient, standardised, particle-free liquid form.
PAX Herbal uses S1 Bold Green Gujarat fennel as feedstock — the highest quality commercial grade with naturally elevated anethole content. Fenchone content is controlled below 5% — fenchone is a bitter, camphor-like compound that at higher levels detracts from the clean sweet anise character. Our fennel oleoresin is EU MRL compliant and GC/MS profiled per batch.
