Wormwood - organic, from Germany (alpine)

In relation too: "Sage essential oil as an alternative to Wormwood, clinical properties of Thuja, Absinthe and y-aminobutyric acid receptors"

"I often use Wormwood essential oil, which I was once afraid of, to ease stomach pains, muscle tension, and anxiety.  If it is not an Absinthe drink, their are a lot of safe uses that responsible, medically uneducated, yet aware people can take advantage of."

My one year old 15ml bottle of Wormwood - organic, from Germany (alpine) is close to depletion.  The distributor no longer lists it as an item in their product page.  However, I spoke with one of the owners and found that when quantities are low and demand for marketable profit from 3rd party distributors are needed, they would sometimes do this.

I have only been able to find one source for this distillation with high concentrates of Thujone.  I will be soon be getting GC/MS data on the distillation, and I will dig a little more into the availability from this small farm.  When I do, and the oil will be in abundance, I will give the sellers source, if I don't get greedy - buy the rest myself.

To comment on my quote, I had a medical doctor go ahead whom has knowledge of this plant and whom also checked for any health interactions and precautions...
