More Information:
The bergamot orange (Citrus bergamia) is a fragrant citrus fruit, a hybrid of sour orange and lemon, prized for its aromatic peel oil used in Earl Grey tea, perfumes, and cosmetics, though the sour, bitter fruit itself is not typically eaten fresh. The tree is medium-sized, grows in warm climates (zones 8-11), and can be grown in pots in cooler areas, requiring well-draining soil and bright light. Its oil has potential health benefits, but can cause skin irritation, and historically was used in tanning accelerators.
- Flavoring: The oil is a key ingredient in Earl Grey tea and other foods.
- Aromatherapy & Perfume: Widely used for its scent in perfumes and cosmetics.
- Potential Health Benefits: May help with cholesterol, anxiety, and sleep, but more research is needed.
- Caution: Bergamot oil can cause skin irritation and is photocarcinogenic, so it should be used with care, especially in sun exposure.
