Locally sourced Biodynamic® Matricaria recutita steam-distilled hydrolat
All our hydrosols are grown on the same farm, by the same master Biodynamic gardener in New York, close to our studio.
From the very beginning of the plant’s life, through its growth and flowering within a very well draining soil, to the time of harvest, we provide our plants an environment that thoroughly enhances their medicinal qualities, a gift of the Biodynamic® approach to soil and plants.
Step 1 Once the harshness of winter and the last frost have passed, the self-seeding German Chamomile begins to sprout in their dedicated beds. The stalks that become our hydrosols are treated with special Biodynamic sprays to foster fertility and vibrancy.
Step 2 Later during summer and once their flowers are abundantly blooming, our master gardener and distiller begins to plan their harvest, knowing from 30 years of experience, the best time to capture the abundant plant compounds and cellular water at a time in their growth cycle when the plant is at its most vital and essential oil production is high.
Step 3 Within minutes of harvesting, the German Chamomile flowers are placed into a classic copper alembic still. Natural well spring water is heated to create the steam that then passes through the plant material, condensing into hydrosol and filling the greenhouse with its intoxicating floral aroma.
Step 4 The sterilized jars filled with newly produced hydrosol are refrigerated until filled into the very bottles that end up in your hands.
The Result Every step of this process is focused on the details to give us the most decadent hydrosols we’ve ever seen. Like an exquisite wine, our fine hydrosols are the result of their terroir - the location and method of growing, the precise time of harvest, the exact distillation process and bottling.
“Our hydrosols come from the steam distillation of our medicinal plants.
Made in micro batches to ensure only first-choice plants are used, we take great care through each step of the distillation process.”
“From the very beginning of the plant’s life, through its growth and flowering within a very well draining soil, to the time of harvest, we provide our plants an environment that thoroughly enhances their medicinal qualities, a gift of the Biodynamic® approach to soil and plants.
Involving specific sprays, attention to the quality of the soil, timing of intervention in regards to the moon and other energetic aspects, our goal is to foster a high content of qualitative medicinal constituents. This you will find in the hydrosols we make.”

A universally loved plant, chamomile has been a part of herbal medicine
for millennia. The ancient Egyptians dedicated the plant to the sun god
Ra, and loved the herb, using it profusely in teas and infused in oils
for all-over skin treatments.
Distillate plant waters, while fairly overlooked in modern aromatherapy,
have long been affiliated with healing and were in use far before
essential oils as we know them today were.
At Maison/Made we talk frequently about our “jardin to bottle” approach. What we mean by Jardin to Bottle is an acute knowledge of the complete lifecycle of every ingredient in our formulas.
