Galangal Hydrosol - Alpinia galanga

About This Hydrosol Pungent with citrus-black-pepper-pine notes, Galangal Hydrosol comes from a rhizome that's traveled widely — Southeast Asian kitchens know it as a curry staple, while Unani and Ayurvedic medicine (where it's called Kulanjan) have used it for centuries. A documented contact-dermatitis case from undiluted topical use is worth a general patch-test caution here, same as any concentrated botanical.
