Wholesale Sizes, 5 lbs to 400 lbs
Every bulk size of our German chamomile comes from the same steam-distilled standard as the retail bottles, in 5 lb, 25 lb, and 400 lb formats priced for production work. The deep blue, apple-sweet oil that fills a nightstand bottle is the same quality that fills a drum.
