Why We Love Umuthi Botanicals

Umuthi Botanicals is one of those brands that feels like home — honest, unpretentious, and deeply connected to the rhythms of nature. Their range is vast — from essential oils and carrier oil favourites to sprouting and planting seeds and those beautiful, slightly unexpected finds that make you fall in love with DIY all over again.

Their essential oils are carefully selected — from timeless favourites to rarer gems. Their essential oils are also available in small, accessible 5 ml sizes, making it easy to experiment, blend, and discover new favourites.

Their carrier oils are equally loved — pure, cold-pressed, and unrefined wherever possible — while their sprouting and seed ranges reflect the same passion for vitality and sustainability.

Trusted for over two decades, Umuthi remains one of South Africa’s most loved and respected sources of pure botanicals and oils. Each seed and oil reflects Umuthi’s gentle philosophy: that living naturally should feel joyful, simple, and attainable.
