I have 60 bottles of various aromatherapy oils is you want to do a combined "class" in common aromatherapy scents. FYI.

Not an expert mind you. Just a hobby I've picked back up in the last year or so.

very cool. Much of what I have at work is related to perfumery as opposed to beer evaluation. I'd be interested to see what you have which could fill in some.

If it's used for aromatherapy (essential oil style aromatherapy...not hokey candles you can by at Bed, Bath and Beyond)...not something I'm wildly allergic to...and not something that costs about a zillion dollars an ounce...I probably have a bottle. The only common ones I don't have are rose and pine. And for the life of me my geranium oil must have been stolen by elves.

I just ordered a bottle of helichrysum...which IS a zillion dollars a bottle, but supposed to be wonderful for pain relief.

When Patty and Meg were over before the holidays I did a "basics of aromatherapy" schpeel. Wood, herb, citrus, menthol, spice and floral are the scent bases for aromatherapy. Almost everything I have is also edible...though "edible" doesn't mean it actually tastes good! (Tea tree oil...tastes like ASS.)

I'd also like to do a beer using clary sage instead of hops. It was the "hop" in England before the widespread use of hops. Remind me and I'll bring a bottle for you to smell the next time I see you. The scent is incredibly unique and complex. Sweet and grassy yet a little lemony. I have a place I order essential oils from that also supplies the dried herb.
