Vital part; extract or tincture (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

essence

(Other definitions for essence that I've seen before include "Intrinsic quality" , "Intrinsic nature (of something)" , "Concentration; nub" , "Concentrated liquid flavouring" , "Key" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
