Cade is from an ancient species of juniper, grows at sea level on rocky sites across the Mediterranean. Through distillation of the rough bark, we gain this dark, aromatic tar oil with it’s strong campfire smoke smell. Ancient cultures believed it had the power to chase away evil spirits. In the Middle Ages in Europe, Cade used to be used to scent leather, after the tanning process that left the hides with unpleasant scents.
