Description: Clear, colorless, needle-like crystals with an odor resembling that of peppermint. They are soluble in alcohol, essential oils and olive oil, but almost insoluble in water and glycerin. The melting point is 41°C to 44°C (105.8°F to 111.2°F); boiling point is 212°C (413.6°F). Menthol crystals start to evaporate at 21°C (70°F).Constituents: The crystals contain not less than 99.4% menthol. Menthol is the chief constituent of peppermint oil and is responsible for its odor and taste and the "cooling sensation" when applied to the skin and mucosal surfaces. Mentha piperita contains up to 50% menthol and Mentha arvensis contains 70-80% menthol. Extraction Method: Steam distillation - Menthol is obtained by subjecting the distilled oil of peppermint to a temperature of -22°C, (-7.6°F.) by the aid of a freezing mixture. The menthol crystallizes out in satiny crystals and the mother liquor is removed while the low temperature is maintained.

Thumbs Up
We have been looking for the product for a while. My mom and i use it as a rubbing compound that we combine with the green rubbin alcohol for pain. I gave one of the two bottles i purchase to my mom, she has just informed me that my sister would like me to order a bottle for her. As i sit here typing this review, i had to rub some on my hands today because i woke up with a pain in my wrist. I am so glad i found your website.
