The Mountain Pine of Val Sarentino:
Well-being and Nature
The mountain pine of Val Sarentino, also known as Pinus Sarenensis, is a medicinal plant used since ancient times for its beneficial effects on both mind and body. Growing between 1,500 and 2,200 metres above sea level, it develops an intense balsamic scent and a resinous texture that make it a vital and energizing oil, widely used in body treatments. Its balsamic essences are a true remedy for the respiratory system, and the essential oil extracted from its needle-like leaves has relaxing and regenerating properties.
Exceptional Quality and a Unique Sensory Experience
The quality of the soil and the sunny location of Val Sarentino provide ideal conditions for cultivating mountain pine. The production of the essential oil follows a traditional distillation process passed down through generations. To obtain just one litre of essential oil, about 250 kg of pine needles are required — carefully hand-picked with patience and dedication.
The mountain pine oil of Val Sarentino, with its fresh, balsamic fragrance reminiscent of wood and resin, is widely used in wellness centres. It is particularly valued for stimulating cellular tissue and creating a balancing effect on the skin, providing a deep sense of relaxation and well-being.
In addition to its antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and expectorant properties, it helps to relax muscles and clear the mind of stress.
For those who love intense flavours, the mountain pine liqueur is an aromatic digestif with a bold alpine taste — the perfect way to end a meal with a touch of the mountains.
