In this video, our local collectors are harvesting Spikenard (𝘕𝑎𝘳𝑑𝘰𝑠𝘵𝑎𝘤ℎ𝘺𝑠 𝑔𝘳𝑎𝘯𝑑𝘪𝑓𝘭𝑜𝘳𝑎), a rare medicinal and aromatic plant that grows only at high altitudes of 3,000-5,000 meters in the Himalayas. The plant is known worldwide for its essential oil, which carries a warm, earthy, calming aroma and is valued in both traditional medicine and modern aromatherapy.

Spikenard thrives in the cool, mist-covered slopes of Nepal, where biodiversity is rich but fragile. Harvesting is not easy - collectors must hike for hours through steep terrain, often in cold and foggy weather, to carefully dig up the roots without damaging the surrounding ecosystem.

The real backbone of this work is the farmers and collectors. Most come from mountain communities where generations have passed down knowledge of when and how to collect Spikenard responsibly. For them, this isn’t just a source of income - it’s a cultural tradition deeply tied to the land.

At Annapurna Aroma Company, we partner directly with these communities to support wildcrafted collection with sustainable practices. By training farmers in proper harvesting cycles, ensuring fair compensation, and investing back into the villages, we aim to make sure that both the plant populations and the people depending on them can thrive for the long term.

टिमुर एउटा नेपालको मध्य पहाडी जँगलमा पाइने जडिबुटी हो। यसको तिखो र अमिलो खाल्को सुगन्ध हुन्छ र स्वाद भने टर्रो (परपराउने) हुन्छ। श्रावण देखी कार्तिक सम्म संकलन गरेपछि टिमुरलाई महिलाहरुले हातैले छान्दछन्। यसलाई घाममा सुकाइन्छ र सुकेको टिमुरबाट ढुसी, डाँठ, धुलो, र बिग्रेका दाना हटाइनछ जसले यसको गुणर्स्तर सुनिस्चित गर्न सकिन्छ।
टिमुरलाइ मसलाको रुपमा मात्र नभइ सुगन्धित तेल उत्पादनका लागी पनि प्रयोग गरीन्छ। यसबाट निकालिएको तेलमा टिमुर झैँ बासना हुन्छ। टिमुरमा antibacterial र anti-inflammatory गुण हुन्छ। यो औषधी, Perfume र Aromatherapy को लागी प्रयोग गरीइन्छ।

Today we honor the serpent deities- Nags, believed to guard water sources, bring rainfall, and bless homes with prosperity and protection.

From sacred ponds like Nag Pokhari to the peaceful waters of Taudaha Lake, people across Nepal offer milk, flowers, and kheer to snake images drawn or placed above their doors.

करी पत्ता (𝑀𝑢𝑟𝑟𝑎𝑦𝑎 𝑘𝑜𝑒𝑛𝑖𝑔𝑖𝑖) दक्षिण एशियामा पाइने विभिन्न वनस्पतिहरुमध्ये एक हो, जुन नेपालको भित्री तराई तथा उपत्यका जस्ता गर्मीहुने ठाउँहरूमा प्राकृतिक रूपमा पाइन्छ। नेपालको सन्दर्भमा असार देखि मंसिर सम्मको महिनालाई करी पत्ता संकलन गर्ने उपयुक्त समय मानिन्छ।

४ देखि ६ मिटर सम्मको हुने यो बिरुवामा साना सेता रङका फूलहरू फुल्दछ र ती फुल परिपक्व हुदासम्म कालो रङको सानो दाना (फल) बन्छद। यसको पात तथा फल मिठो सुगन्धले भरिपुर्ण हुन्छ, जसलाई परलपूर्व देखी खाना, तेल र औषधिको रुपमा प्रयोग गरिदै आएको पाईन्छ।

यो तस्वीरले हामीले दिगो सङ्कलनका मापदण्ड अपनाई करी पत्ता सङ्कलन गरिरहेको कुरालाई दर्शाउछँ। दिगो सङ्कलनलाई ध्यानमा राखि हामीले सधैँ राम्रोसगँ बढेका परिपक्व पातहरु मात्र सङ्कलन गर्ने गदर्छौं ताकी सोही बिरुवामा अन्य पातहरु समेत पुनः पलाउन सकोस। सङ्कलनपछि यी पातहरूको प्रयोग गरी बाफको माध्यामबाट पकाएर सुगन्धित तेल (Essential oil) उत्पादन गरिन्छ। यो तेल केवल सुगन्धित मात्र नभइ, शरीरलाई फुर्तिलो तथा बलियो बनाउने, पाचन प्रणालीमा सुधार ल्याउने र मनलाई ताजा बनाउने गुणले पनि भरिपुर्ण हुने गर्दछ।

At Annapurna Aroma, we carefully capture the essence of the Himalayas through our wildcrafted Juniper oils, sourced from the high-altitude regions of eastern Nepal, between 3,000 to 3,500 meters. The leaves and berries of 𝐽𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑢𝑠 𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑚𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑠 are each distilled with precision to preserve their unique character and therapeutic value.
With its fresh, balsamic, pine-like aroma, Juniper oil has long been cherished for its ability to ease inflammation, support respiratory health, and stimulate circulation. Its detoxifying nature makes it ideal for muscle and joint care, while its warm, grounding scent provides emotional comfort, calming the mind and relieving tension.
Whether used in a diffuser, massage blend, or personal care product, this oil is a true reflection of the Himalayan landscape- clean, potent, and crafted with intention. Every batch represents our commitment to sustainability, tradition, and transparency.

Freshly harvested aromatic plants are carefully taken to the distillation site. This step is important to keep the plants fresh so the essential oil remains strong and effective. The transport needs to happen quickly because delays can reduce the quality of the oil. From growing and harvesting to carrying the plants, everything is done with attention and care. This helps make sure the final oil is natural, pure, and useful. The process also supports local communities and shows the hard work and skills of the people involved at each stage.

Spikenard (𝑁𝑎𝑟𝑑𝑜𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑐ℎ𝑦𝑠 𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑑𝑖𝑓𝑙𝑜𝑟𝑎) is one of Nepal’s most revered medicinal and aromatic plant. Known locally as Jatamansi, this endangered herb grows above 3,000 meters and has been used for centuries in Ayurveda for its calming, stress-relieving, and grounding properties. Its roots are steam-distilled into a highly valued essential oil used in wellness, skincare, and aromatherapy.

Spikenard is officially listed under CITES Appendix II, meaning its trade is regulated to prevent overexploitation. At Annapurna Aroma, we are committed to collecting Spikenard responsibly and ethically, in compliance with CITES regulations. We work directly with local collectors and Community Forest User Groups (CFUGs) to ensure traceability, minimal ecological impact, and long-term preservation of the species.

अन्नपूर्ण अरोमामा हामी सुगन्ध कोकिला (𝘾𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘮𝘶𝘮 𝘤𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘰𝘥𝘢𝘱𝘩𝘯𝘦) लाई जिम्मेवार र नैतिक तरिकाले सङ्कलन गर्छौं। यो मसला नेपालका मध्यम पहाडी वनमा प्राकृतिक रूपमा पाइन्छ, र यसको मीठो सुगन्धले विशेषगरी गर्मी र वर्षा याममा वनलाई महकित बनाउँछ।

जेष्ठदेखि भाद्रसम्म यसको फल टिप्ने समय हो। यिनै सुकाएका फलहरूलाई स्थानीय सामुदायिक वन समूहका सदस्यहरूले सावधानीपूर्वक हातैले सङ्कलन गर्छन्। सङ्कलित फलहरूलाई बाफमा उमालेर (steam distillation) शुद्ध तेल निकालिन्छ - जसमा गर्मी दिने, रोग प्रतिरोधात्मक र मानसिक ताजगी दिने गुण हुन्छ।

स्थानीय सङ्कलकहरूसँग मिलेर, हामी न केवल प्राकृतिक स्रोतको संरक्षण गर्छौं, तर ग्रामीण समुदायलाई पनि दिगो रोजगारीको अवसर प्रदान गर्छौं। हाम्रो प्रत्येक बोतलमा तपाईंले नेपालका वन र मानिसहरूको कथालाई महसुस गर्न सक्नुहुन्छ।
