Our gum spirits of turpentine and pine gum rosin are derived from slash pine trees (pinus elliottii) growing in south Georgia, USA, using sustainable forest practices. We harvest the raw pine gum ourselves. Then, we fire distill the raw gum on our farm using basically the same methods used for hundreds of years. Finally, we bottle, label, package, and ship our turpentine all by hand. Attention to detail is paramount in our business. Our goal is to maintain the historical integrity of pure gum spirits of turpentine and pine gum rosin while also providing our customers with premier products they can afford.
