Kapuchi essential oil 2024 is available.
By chance I see on
October 12th in Motobu that the Kapuchi festival begins on October 12th in Motobu .
Note that google translate does not say Kapuchi (from カーブチー Kāabuchīi) but curb chee, Carbhi, Kab Qi or Karb Chee which makes no sense and yet it knows that ka = skin and buchi = thick. https://okinesia.com/ryukyu-fragrance/
This NHK paper says, "The harvest period for Kabuchi is short, from September to October."
So we started harvesting and extracting in mid-October, a fruit that was still very green but supple and juicy. Earlier than last year. Kapuchi ( Citrus keraji var. kabuchii hort.) unlike shikuwasa is especially interesting for its essential oil. It is the main outlet for the fruit, which is rare in Japan. https://okinesia.com/ryukyu-fragrance/
And even rarer, this essential oil has as its main outlet cosmetic perfumery. https://11201.co.jp/product-tag/%E3%82%AB%E3%83%BC%E3%83%96%E3%83%81%E3%83%BC/?srsltid=AfmBOoouBjrrQoTSTchCcxtVynckhd6NBkb5PSMc6w26CDebgvXKltpm
But of course we remain in Japan, the deodorizing virtues of Kabuchi essential oil are highlighted.
The press release attributes this anti-bad odor power to the unique refreshing scent of kapuchi which contains the aromatic components γ- terpinene and thymol. Because there too one cannot alleviate the well-known effects on health. For the record, gamma-terpinene is a powerful sedative, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. https://shop.fromo.jp/?pid=157170159
Y Kobayashi et al. demonstrated in 2012 the anxiolytic effects of γ-terpinene and thymol: significant reduction in spontaneous motor activity, reduction in sleep latency and increase in sleep duration.
In 2016, they wrote that "vaporized Kabuchii essential oil and its active component, y-terpinene, have sedative effects comparable to diazepam (an anxiolytic drug) without inducing motor incoordination, which is a well-known side effect of diazepam."
All this is public, known, tested on humans. A site in Okinawa markets this EO by highlighting its sedative and sleeping-inducing effects.
