Our oils

Extra virgin, crude and refined avocado oil.

Avocados are seasonal, and so is our oil. We press from April to October, and we do not store oil from one season to the next, so every order ships from the current pressing.

Edible

Extra virgin avocado oil

Our extra virgin oil is pressed only from ripe Kenyan Hass and Fuerte avocados that pass hand sorting. Each fruit is checked by our team before it is cold-pressed at low temperature, which keeps the oil green, fresh and full of flavour.
