Ginger is native to Asia but is now grown widely throughout the tropics. The Caribbean countries, where the plant has been grown for some four hundred years, depended on ginger as an important part of the spice trade. The ginger plant is a perennial herb with a tuberous rhizome, and this is the part of the plant that is used. The ginger flower is white or yellow and very showy.

Ginger has a long history of use both as a spice and as a herbal remedy, in particular for ailments of a digestive nature.

Essential oil of ginger is obtained from the root, which has been previously dried and ground, by the process of steam distillation. It is pale yellow to amber in colour and has a spicy, sweet and pungent smell. The oil is warming and toning and can boost flagging spirits.
