COCONUT OIL

Premium Virgin Coconut Oil extracted from fresh, mature coconut meat (Cocos nucifera) using cold-press methods. This tropical oil features a distinctive coconut aroma and flavor, solid white appearance at room temperature, and melts to clear liquid at 76°F (24°C). Available in two grades: Virgin Coconut Oil (cold-pressed from fresh meat, retains coconut flavor, smoke point 350°F/177°C) and Refined Coconut Oil (processed from dried copra, neutral flavor, higher smoke point 400-450°F/204-232°C). Versatile for cooking, baking, skincare, and hair care.

Storage Instructions

 

Temperature: Store in a cool, dark place at 15-25°C (59-77°F); solidifies below 24°C (76°F), liquefies above this temperature—this is normal and doesn't affect quality

 

Container: Airtight glass jars or food-grade plastic containers; ensure lids are secure to prevent absorption of odors

 

Light: Keep away from direct sunlight and heat sources; darkness preserves quality

 

Refrigeration: Optional—extends shelf life significantly; oil becomes hard and white in fridge but softens at room temperature

 

Shelf Life: Virgin Coconut Oil: 2-3 years when stored properly; 1-2 years after opening
