There is a long history of deception in witch hazel. It started in the late 1800's with people passing off hazel leaf as witch hazel. <br />Witch hazel INIC is to be made from leaves, witch hazel usp is to made from twigs harvested while dormant and soaked in alcohol then distilled until it is 85% of the original weight in. Unfortunately there is not much oversight in the production of witch hazel and whole trees are used. This means that rather than the active ingredient found in the bark, you have a product made with the pulp wood, which is not a legal ingredient in either product. <br />As distillers of hydrosol (which lasts more than a year) we distilled pound per pound fresh product to final product. Thank you for your time to look this over and let us know if you would like some links to support this summary. , Pennyhttp://www.organicwitchhazel.comnoreply@blogger.com
