- ✋ Advice Prior to Purchase: Our Tamanu Oil is truly unrefined. A potent nutty, earthy or funky scent, color variations and natural grain are all hallmarks of its unrefined nature. It’s proof that we haven’t modified the healing volatile oils, innate fatty acid chains and antioxidants present in the Tamanu seed fat. Filtering the product prior to use – isolating residue of seeds, hulls and in exceptional cases, foreign matter is recommended. Crafted for users of “chemical free” DIY formulations.
- 🌿 Wild Grown, Natural, Raw & Pure: We work with rural cooperatives in Sindhudurg, Maharashtra, India to produce our hydrating Tamanu Oil. We use traditional cold presses, which help preserve the seeds’ innate healing values. This method does not involve any chemical solvents! Our Tamanu Oil can be safely classified as natural, raw & unrefined, unbleached and non-deodorized.
- 🌿 Provenance & Silviculture: Calophyllum Inophyllum trees or simply Tamanu (pronounced: Ta-ma-nu) trees as they are known locally have been growing for eons in the wild, in and around the western coast of Maharashtra & Goa in India. Cottage level low scale silviculture based cultivation of Tamanu is mainly confined to the hilly areas near this long scenic coast.
- 🌿 Vegan Goodness in Every Drop: Our Tamanu Oil is extracted from the seeds of wild-grown organic Tamanu fruits. The silver lining to all of this wild-grown produce is that Tamanu trees which grow in the wild have not yet come into contact with chemical fertilizers and pesticides. This is one reason why our Tamanu Oil is popular with small and medium sized formulators and exotic oil connoisseurs.
- 🌿 The All-In-One Oil: Our Tamanu Oil is a rich source of antioxidants and essential fatty acids like stearic, oleic, palmitic, linoleic, and myristic. Perfect as is or for use in DIY cosmetic face and skin moisturizers, hair and scalp healing conditioners etc. Can also be whipped with a carrier butter. For direct to skin use, a patch test is recommended prior to use.
