Native to Australia, the Tea Tree is part of the Myrtaceae (Myrtle) family and produces one of the most well-known essential oils globally. Tea Tree supposedly gets its name from being used as a tea by sailors from the 18th century under Captain Cook as he navigated the Pacific Ocean. He witnessed the indigenous population of Australia using the leaves as medicine and copied the use. Tea Tree has become a common household remedy, with the huge industry producing hundreds of kilos of Tea Tree every year.
