Description
Pinus Alpium mountain pine oil
Experience the powerful purity of the South Tyrolean Alps with Pinus Alpium mountain pine oil – a premium essential oil from certified organic cultivation. Obtained by gentle steam distillation following a centuries-old tradition, this oil preserves the valuable constituents of the mountain pine in their natural form.
The mountain pines grow on the sunny high slopes of the Sarntal valley in South Tyrol, at 1,800 to 2,200 metres above sea level. This extreme alpine environment makes the plants grow particularly slowly – and that is exactly what makes the difference: the longer ripening process allows the active plant compounds to develop and concentrate optimally.
Our mountain pine oil is 100% pure – free from preservatives, synthetic additives or chemical impurities. Ideal for aromatherapy, wellness rituals, sauna infusions or to support the respiratory tract and muscles. With Pinus Alpium, you bring the original power of the mountains straight into your home.

“Nature-identical” means rebuilt in a lab. And “with essential oils” can mean a single drop per litre. Our label lists just one ingredient: mountain pine. That’s all there is, and you can check it for yourself.
At 2,000 metres, mountain pine grows barely 30 centimetres a year. You can smell it.
Up there it is cold and the soil gives almost nothing. The mountain pine has to defend itself, and that is why it forms more terpenes. These are the compounds you smell when you rub a needle between your fingers. The slower the plant grows, the more concentrated the oil becomes.
Most producers distil down in the valley, at 850 or 900 metres. We go up for it and harvest by hand, as we have for three generations.
Altitude compared
You've probably held our oil in your hands before. It just had a different name on it.
The Thaler family from the Sarntal valley in South Tyrol has been devoted to the craft of oil distilling for over 100 years. Even some of Europe's best-known natural cosmetics brands have been filling our oil into their bottles for years. Now you have the chance to buy our unique oil first-hand, directly from us.
My grandfather was already distilling this oil. I grew up with the scent. I won't put my family name on anything that's been diluted.
3 generations. 1 valley. 100 years of craftsmanship.
The "Georg Thaler" mountain pine oil distillery is located in Reinswald in the Sarntal valley, South Tyrol. The oils we offer are 100% pure essential oils, free from preservatives or any other chemical additives.

And here's how you can use it:
Airways
Two drops on the shower floor, turn on the warm water. The steam does the rest.
After sport
Mix with a little neutral carrier oil and massage in. Absorbs quickly and has a subtle scent.
Room air
Four to six drops in the diffuser. Smells like a conifer forest after the rain, without you having to step outside.
Note:
Never apply essential oil undiluted to the skin. Not suitable for children under three; if you are pregnant, talk to your doctor first.
Questions & answers
Frequently asked questions
How do I use the oil?
The easiest way: a few drops in an aroma lamp or diffuser. In the sauna, add three to five drops to the infusion water, never directly onto the stones. On the skin, always diluted – a few drops in a neutral carrier oil. Further up on this page we show you a few ideas in detail.
Where does the oil come from?
From the Sarntal valley in South Tyrol, more precisely from Reinswald, at 1,800 to 2,200 metres. We harvest there by hand and distil the oil on our own farm. No detour via middlemen.
What are terpenes?
Terpenes are the fragrant substances a plant produces itself. You can smell them when you rub a needle between your fingers. The higher and more barren the ground where the mountain pine or Swiss stone pine grows, the more terpenes it contains. They are exactly what makes the scent.
Is it suitable for consumption?
No. Our oil is meant for its scent: in the sauna, in a diffuser or diluted on the skin. Essential oils are highly concentrated, and ours is not intended to be taken internally.
Can I use it around children?
Better not for children under three. Essential oils are strong, especially for little noses. With older children, use sparingly and only in the room, not on the skin. If you are pregnant, talk to your doctor first.
Can I apply the oil directly to my skin?
Only diluted. A few drops in a neutral carrier oil such as almond or jojoba. 100% pure also means: highly concentrated.
How can I tell genuine mountain pine oil?
Look at the label. Does it say “100% pure” and give the botanical name Pinus mugo? And does the producer tell you exactly where they distil? For us: Reinswald in the Sarntal valley, South Tyrol, at 1,800 to 2,200 metres.
Why are you more affordable than the well-known brands?
Because nobody stands in between. No wholesaler, no brand adding its own mark-up. The oil is the same – the path to you is just shorter.
I've never heard of you. Why should I trust you?
Understandable. For decades, we were the business behind the brands. A third-generation family business doesn’t put its name on the line for poor quality.
