The planet’s premiere produce demands respectful and conscientious stewardship; I have found no finer exemplar of such ethos than has Lotus Garden Botanicals proven themselves to be the case in the 7+ years I’ve enjoyed the privilege of gracing them with my patronage. In the world of natural products, quality is everything, and everything is quality: that is, no species can find its true expression absent the support of its proper conditions for its peculiar growth and developmental requirements, on the one hand; and on the other, no detail can be too small to potentially impact the final result’s quality, be that by its enhancement or to its detriment, from seed to serum. Whether by ignorance or contrivance, ruefully few appreciate how fine can become such subtleties: not only does Lotus Garden’s proprietor, they dedicate and apply, plenarily, all resources found to be involved in the rendering of an uncompromised result in the final product. This has best been exemplified for me in their focus on hexane-free absolutes my senses render utterly devoid of synthetic residues.
In conjunction with my 1st order I called their customer service and was surprised to be greeted by the proprietor personally. I enjoyed our extensive conversation in which they explained many facets of their handling practices, each of which exhibits the utmost respect for the materials: only warm—never boiling—water to gently render extractions mobile; hand-poured to-order with stock in cryogenic storage otherwise; dark amber bottles to protect photosensitive volatiles; 3rd-party lab testing for each and every batch stocked; important statistics listed openly and placed on every label (even samples) including distillation date that empowers customers to gauge purchase decisions on the basis of their own projected actual use of the products; exhaustive investigation to ascertain and verify ethical sourcing; exclusively direct relationship with distillers (no middle men); and those are just what I remember off the top of my head after all these years!
A further word on integrity as befits the planet’s finest: not only is Lotus Garden’s proprietor possessed of fully legitimate and impeccable bona fides as a graduate of world-class institutions in Grasse, France benefitted by centuries of expertise, but I have witnessed their yield of savvy deployed into decisive action on several occasions to procure extreme rarities to the highest of standards, e.g. genuine Indian Mysore sandalwood aged a minimum of 3 decades ethically sourced through the Indian government’s protected restoration groves—among many others for which Google Reviews’ word limit defies elaboration. Every item receives this caliber of care and vetting. Even energetics are considered. Lotus Garden lays claim, with credibility few can, to accurate, assiduous sussing-out of not merely any adulteration or counterfeiting, but most especially the discovery and celebration of unique specimens’ particularly desireable or interesting qualities, such as thyme chemotype thujanol I delighted in for how mild was its sweet freshness’ emphasis as compared to the more common sharpness of familiar culinary varieties (among many other examples…).
In my opinion, the individual consumer will do no better than to make of themselves a customer of Lotus Garden Botanicals. Uncompromising, their palette ranges into the highest echelons of elite botanical extracts to include the very finest in the world. That this is made available to the individual—not just to institutions and corporations—deserves our gratitude and commendation. I am humbly honored to be enthusiastic and loyal a customer of Lotus Garden Botanicals and encourage anyone for whom quality is paramount to support them in their indefatigable vindication of nature’s potential regardless of prevailing disincentives posed by corporatism, marketing, ignorance, indifference, and any supplier malfæsance incented thereby. Thank you, Lotus Garden, for keeping my lifeline to the vitality in...
