In a world full of refined and chemically processed oils, wood cold pressed oils stand apart as nature's purest gift. At Agumbe Organics, we believe that the way oil is extracted matters just as much as the oil itself.
What is Wood Cold Pressing?
Wood cold pressing is an ancient, traditional method of extracting oil using a wooden churner (also known as a ghani). The seeds or nuts are slowly pressed at low temperatures — no heat, no chemicals, no shortcuts. This preserves the natural nutrients, antioxidants, and flavour that are otherwise destroyed in modern refining processes.
Why Choose Cold Pressed Oils?
- Rich in nutrients: Cold pressed oils retain their natural vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
- No harmful chemicals: Unlike refined oils, no hexane or solvents are used in extraction.
- Better taste and aroma: The natural flavour of the seed or nut is fully preserved.
- Heart-healthy: Cold pressed oils contain healthy fats that support cardiovascular health.
- Higher smoke point awareness: Each oil has its ideal cooking use — from sautéing to deep frying.
