Description
Our Premium Raw, Organic Virgin Coconut Oil is a wonder balm.
We love all things coconut for their nutrition and delicious flavour. If you are lucky enough to have travelled in Asia you will be very familiar with how versatile and tasty the coconut is. Luckily we don’t have to travel far to find ‘coconutty’ things these days and organic virgin coconut oil is top of the list for coconut lovers.
Our Coconut Oil is harvested from organic plantations in Sri Lanka. These bountiful coconut farms offer employment to local people, particularly women. These locals work close to home as lab technicians, accountants and cleaning personnel. We are so happy to know that our coconut oil comes from an ethical source which offers support to the local community.
Coconuts grow all year round so the standard of our coconut oil remains high throughout the year. The mature coconuts (or drupes) are cut down by hand using a machete. The outer husk is then removed and burnt for fuel. The white fleshy kernel inside is separated to be washed. Our coconut oil is produced from fresh, moist coconut meat which is cold pressed manually to produce the finest raw, organic virgin coconut oil.
The benefits of organic coconut oil include:
- One of the healthiest oils for cooking, safe to use at high heat.
- Gently cold-pressed to preserve nutrients. No excessive heat used.
- High in lauric acid and other natural health-supporting compounds.
- You can use it for cooking, baking, or even as a beauty treatment.
- Melts effortlessly at low temperatures (around 23 to 24°C). It is easy to mix into sweet and savory dishes.
How to Use Organic Coconut Oil for Cooking: Coconut oil is an excellent choice for cooking, as the saturated fats stay stable at high temperatures. Unlike some other oils, it doesn’t break down or oxidize when heated, so you can safely use it for frying, roasting, and sautéing without worrying about denatured fatty acids.
How to Use Organic Coconut Oil for Hair and Body: Coconut oil isn’t just for the kitchen but it’s also a versatile natural beauty product. Use it as a moisturiser for skin, a nourishing hair mask, or even a gentle makeup remover. Its hydrating properties make it a great all-in-one addition to your skincare routine.
