Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
₹0.00
The extraction process of extra virgin coconut oil involves cold-pressing fresh coconut meat, without the use of high heat or chemicals. First, the coconuts are husked and their white meat is carefully removed. This meat is then cold-pressed to extract the oil. Cold-pressing refers to mechanically pressing the coconut meat at low temperatures, usually below 120°F (49°C), to preserve its natural nutrients and flavors. This method helps maintain the oil’s purity and quality, making it “extra virgin.” The resulting oil is rich in medium-chain fatty acids, antioxidants, and has a distinct coconut aroma and flavor, making it suitable for various culinary, beauty, and health applications.
