FAQ

An extract is a product obtained by treating a natural raw material, of plant or animal origin, with one or more solvents (mainly water, alcohol, etc.)

The material is used as is or prepared by one or more traditional processes (e.g. grinding, roasting, peeling, drying, etc.) with a view to extraction (e.g. infusion, distillation, etc.), then separation (filtration, centrifugation, etc.).

An ORGANIC extract is composed of an ORGANIC raw material and an ORGANIC solvent. Less powerful than a flavor, it can increase the final cost of a product.

Take vanilla, for example: vanilla pods are ground, mixed with water and alcohol, then heated and filtered.
