Juniperol is a tricyclic terpenoid alcohol with the chemical formula C15H26O. This is one of the primary aromatic and flavor-defining constituents of the essential oil of common juniper (Juniperus communis) berries, which are used as the key botanical in gin production. Juniperol was initially isolated by Mattson in 1913.
