ABOUT RICQLÈS

RICQLÈS is made in France since 1838 !

RICQLÈS Peppermint Extract was invented 180 years ago in the South of France.

Heyman de Ricqlès was a young silk trader with a passion for botany, and he got particularly interested in peppermint leaves. In 1838 he managed to elaborate a natural distillation process with several secret manipulations to keep intact all the properties of essential oil : RICQLÈS Peppermint Extract was born.

An unchanged recipe since 1838

The success of RICQLÈS Peppermint Extract stems from several factors: its secret recipe which has not changed for over 180 years, its wonderful story through the years, its multiple benefits and the careful selection of ingredients* used to produce it.

*Ingredients : Alcohol, water, peppermint essential oil (Mentha Piperita).
