Bitter almond is a common form of almond whose botanical name is prunus dulcis or prunus amygdalus. The almond plant is native to some parts of the Middle East as well as to the African and Indian sub-continents, but it likes plenty of sunshine, warm winters, well-watered places and does not discriminate. Almond is the seed of this plant which is edible and widely consumed as a dried fruit all over the world.

Bitter almond oil is made from different kinds of almonds. About half of the weight of a dry almond is fat. It is obtained by pressing the ripe almonds to remove the oil with minimum heat.
