Estragon (Tarragon) oil is an essential oil that is distilled from the perennial herb, Atremisia dracunculus/ estragon. It is believed the perennial earned its name from the Arabic word “Tharkhoum” and the Latin word “Dracunculus” meaning “little dragon”  because of how the root systems coil up like a dragon. It is often used for perfumes and colognes due to its sweet and slightly spicy scent. Tarragon oil also has a stimulating effect on appetite and slow digestive systems. It can be used to help cure anorexia, flatulence, hiccups, and nervous indigestion.
