Recently i have seen photos of wood which is used to distill 2500$ oils and other wood used for oils which sell for over 750$ oils. I was very suprised as the wood shown IMO is of rather average quality with a resinated outter shell and pretty much white/yellow wood on the inside. Also many people get confused when pictures are shown of wood when infact its the shavings of the wood which are used for distillation. Out of a batch so big you would obviously show the best pieces as a vendor, It is hard and slightly unfair to judge raw material via pictures however you can get a slight feel for the wood from pictures. This kind of wood typically would sell for a few hundred dollars a kilo unless im mistaken some would say even less. A few members have verified this by asking few suppliers and doing some maths. I have seen some of the Woods Taha, Adam and Faizal have used for their oils and the wood is far superior to that pictured and the oils cheaper. It comes back to my point its not always about having high quality wood but there is alot more to it and its great if oils crafted from lower grade wood can smell better. It would be great if vendors could share information and pictures of any oils old and new so we can learn more about oil production and raw material selection. Below is a photo of wood used for a co-distillation if i was to sell this oil i would sell it at 350$ for 3g and believe me it smells artisinal.
