White Oak Tincture & Alcohol-Free Extract

White Oak (Quercus alba) is a large, long-lived deciduous tree of the beech family, Fagaceae, native to eastern and central North America from Quebec to Florida and Texas, where it dominates upland forests on well-drained soils. It grows 25 to 30 meters with a broad, rounded crown of heavy limbs, light grey bark that breaks into loose, flaky plates, and leaves with seven to nine rounded lobes that turn deep red to purple in autumn. The acorns are oval with a shallow, warty cap, and the pale, tight-grained wood is prized for barrels and flooring. We extract the dried bark.
