The communities of South India have been long accustomed to the various uses of coconuts. Our Raw Organic Coconut oil is extracted within 10 hours of picking, peeling and shredding of coconut flesh, to preserve its freshness. It is produced using a cold-pressed method using both modern technology and the South Indian conventional wisdom of “Chekku”.

This method preserves all the natural properties of our coconut oil which has been carefully selected from high quality coconuts, from organically grown trees without using any harmful chemicals or substances. All of the coconuts used to make our oil are grown organically in plantations from local farmlands in the Districts of Theni and Kangeyum.

Organic coconut oil is reputed to provide a range of nourishing benefits, especially when eaten raw and used in everyday cooking as it is a great source of Medium-Chain Triglycerides. When used to cook in high temperatures, it is the only oil that stays stable and is ranked as having the highest Smoke point (before it is damaged due to high heat). This means, this oil is the best for all your high heat cooking needs!
