Our Commitment to Quality at Old Spirits, Wild Roots
At Old Spirits, Wild Roots, quality is not a feature — it is the foundation.
Every oil created under this name is made with the understanding that potency, purity, and coherence are inseparable. From the land where the plants are gathered to the vessel the oil rests in, every step of the process is intentional, restrained, and respectful of both material science and subtle energy.
A Mindful Process, From Beginning to End
Our oils are not mass-produced, rushed, or outsourced. They are crafted through a slow, attentive process designed to preserve both biochemical integrity and energetic clarity.
Each batch involves:
- Thoughtful sourcing or wild-harvesting at appropriate times
- Careful drying and handling to prevent moisture, degradation, or energetic disruption
- Slow infusions that prioritize extraction without overheating or force
- Multiple filtration stages to ensure purity
- Final stabilization to protect shelf life and potency
Nothing is added casually. Nothing is skipped for speed.
Why We Use Organic Jojoba Oil
We choose organic jojoba oil as our primary carrier for a reason — and it is not simply preference.
Jojoba is technically a liquid wax ester, not a true oil. This makes it:
- Exceptionally stable
- Resistant to oxidation and rancidity
- Long-lasting without synthetic preservatives
More importantly, jojoba closely mirrors the skin’s natural sebum. This allows it to:
- Absorb slowly and evenly
- Carry botanical and mineral constituents without distortion
- Support the body’s natural regulation rather than overwhelm it
From an energetic perspective, jojoba is a neutral, coherent carrier — it does not compete with or obscure the intelligence of the plants and minerals infused within it.
The Importance of Amber and Black Glass
Every Old Spirits, Wild Roots oil is stored exclusively in amber or black glass, never clear plastic or unprotected containers.
This choice is both scientific and energetic.
From a material standpoint:
- Light exposure degrades plant compounds over time
- UV radiation breaks down volatile constituents
- Glass prevents chemical leaching and static interference
Amber and black glass:
- Filter harmful light wavelengths
- Preserve aromatic and therapeutic integrity
- Extend shelf life naturally
From an energetic standpoint, dark glass:
- Protects subtle structures from constant environmental stimulation
- Maintains internal coherence
- Allows the oil to remain settled, rather than reactive
The vessel matters. What holds the medicine shapes how it behaves.
Purity Over Excess
Old Spirits, Wild Roots oils are never overloaded for effect. More ingredients do not equal more power.
Each formulation is built around:
- Compatibility
- Balance
- Clarity of purpose
This restraint ensures that the oils:
- Work with the nervous system, not against it
- Remain adaptable to individual bodies and sensitivities
- Retain integrity over time
Potency comes from alignment, not force.
