Slash Pine Oleoresin Products

---

Description:   Our gum spirits of turpentine and pine gum rosin are derived from slash pine trees (pinus elliottii) growing in south Georgia, USA, using sustainable forest practices. We harvest the raw pine gum ourselves. Then, we fire distill the raw gum on our farm using the same methods used for hundreds of years. Finally, we bottle, label, package, and ship our turpentine all by hand. Attention to detail is paramount in our business. Our goal is to maintain the historical integrity of pure gum spirits of turpentine and pine gum rosin while also providing our customers with premier products they can afford. Our turpentine is not to be confused with "rectified turpentine," which is a by-product of the pulp and paper industry and contains sulfates and other impurities. Our turpentine is 100% pure. Not for human consumption.

 Slash pine oleoresin refers to the resinous substance produced by the slash pine tree (Pinus elliottii). This pine species is native to the southeastern United States and is known for its production of oleoresin, which is a sticky, aromatic substance.

Slash pine oleoresin shares many of the same potential applications as oleoresin from other pine species, including:

1. **Turpentine Production**: One of the primary uses of slash pine oleoresin is the extraction of turpentine. Turpentine, a volatile liquid, is obtained by distilling the oleoresin. It has various industrial applications, including as a solvent and in the production of paints and varnishes.

2. **Rosin Production**: After turpentine is extracted, the remaining solid material is known as rosin. Rosin has numerous applications, including as a component in various adhesives, in the manufacturing of musical instrument strings, and in some types of waxes and polishes.

3. **Fire Starting**: Like other pine oleoresins, slash pine oleoresin is highly flammable and can be used as a fire starter in outdoor settings.

4. **Crafts and Adhesives**: Melted and purified pine oleoresin can be used as an adhesive in crafts or for repairing objects.

5. **Traditional Medicine**: Some traditional cultures have used pine oleoresin topically for its potential antiseptic properties, although it's important to use caution when applying it to the skin.

6. **Aromatics and Perfumery**: The aromatic compounds found in slash pine oleoresin can be used in the production of perfumes, incense, and other fragrant products.

The use of slash pine oleoresin is often tied to its industrial and commercial applications, particularly in the production of turpentine and rosin. The extraction and processing of these substances from slash pine oleoresin are important aspects of the forestry and chemical industries in the southeastern United States.
