LIME – Citrus Aurantifolia

Essential oil of lime is produced in two ways: steam distillation and cold expression. All parts of the lime are widely used throughout the world in cooking. Lime is utilized in the soft drinks and food industry and in perfumes, aftershaves, and deodorants. Lime is indigenous to Asia and was introduced into Europe by Arabian traders, and then into the Americas by the Spanish, probably earlier than the sixteenth century.
