In addition, a unique production process is used. Both factors combined ultimately ensure a high-quality end product. After the selection of salvia roots in the highest quality available, the extraction of the herb takes place. This is done at a low temperature, without the use of chemicals. In addition, Dragon Herbs works with a so-called 'oil trap' during the extraction process. This is an advanced device that contains an extraction system. This extraction system captures the aromatic substances that evaporate during the extraction process. It then stores them in crystallized form. Only at the end of the production process are they added back to the herbal extract. In this way, no aromatic substance is lost during the production process. You can smell the difference in quality. The intense scent of this product is not present in most other brands. This is simply because fragrances are lost during the extraction process.</p>
