Description
Origin
Harvested in Sri Lanka, this virgin coconut oil is cold‑pressed from fresh, organically grown coconuts. It retains the natural aroma and flavour of coconut without additives or refining.
What is it?
Our Organic Virgin Coconut Oil is produced in Sri Lanka from fresh coconut kernels, carefully cold-pressed to retain their natural characteristics. Unlike refined oils, it is minimally processed and naturally maintains its coconut aroma and flavour.
This versatile oil can be used in both food and personal care applications, making it a convenient staple for everyday living.
Ingredients & Processing
- 100% cold‑pressed organic coconut oil
- No preservatives, no stabilisers, no hydrogenation or refining
The oil is extracted using traditional methods under controlled low temperatures to preserve its natural coconut characteristics. It solidifies below approximately 24‑25°C and liquefies above that without affecting its purity.

Each component of the oil serves a clear purpose in cooking, skincare, or general use. Below are its key features:
- Delivers a clean coconut taste and fragrance
