Aloe Dried Resins(Perypery)
Price range: $40.00 through $500.00
Socotra Island, often called the “Galápagos of the Indian Ocean,” is home to unique flora, including the renowned Aloe species that produce a rare and precious dried resin. This resin, sometimes referred to as Socotrine Aloe or Aloe gum, is harvested carefully from mature plants and has been treasured for centuries for its medicinal, cosmetic, and aromatic qualities.
The precious Aloe juice is carefully collected from freshly cut branches and poured into traditional wineskins made from animal hide. This ancient method is the only way to dry and preserve the aloe naturally, protecting its purity and strength. Over the course of nearly two years, the moisture slowly evaporates under the island’s warm climate, leaving behind a rich, concentrated resin
