Freshness matters.
Many black seed oils are produced overseas, stored, shipped, warehoused, and eventually placed on store shelves months later.
We believe quality starts at production. That's why we press in small batches and bottle locally, giving customers access to oil that hasn't spent months moving through a global supply chain.

The Art and Science of Cold-Pressing
Preserving What Heat Destroys

Our process is different.
Our Method:
- Temperature: Never exceeding 40°C
- Pressure: Gentle and consistent, respecting the seed's integrity
- Result: An oil that remains as close as possible to its natural state.
Cleaner. Fresher. Less processed.

FAQ
What does it taste like?
Bold and distinctive, with peppery warmth and a slightly bitter, oregano-like finish. Its robust flavour pairs well with honey, hummus, salad dressings and savoury dishes.
How should I start using it?
Begin with a teaspoon mixed with honey. As you acquire the taste, try it in dressings, as a finishing oil, or taken straight. Some even enjoy adding it to their coffee!
Why does the color vary?
Natural variation can sometimes occur between batches, reflecting the authenticity of our small batch process.
How much thymoquinone (TQ) is in your Black Seed Oil?
An independent third-party laboratory measured 7.11 mg/g of naturally occurring thymoquinone in a sample of our Black Seed Oil.
TQ is an important part of black seed oil, but it isn’t the entire oil. Black seed contains a range of naturally occurring compounds alongside TQ, as well as its characteristic fatty-acid composition. A higher TQ percentage alone does not tell you how the oil was produced or whether it retains the natural balance of the complete oil.
Processing methods such as heating, concentrating, adding extracts or blending can change that balance. We take a different approach. We press the complete oil directly from certified organic Egyptian Nigella sativa seeds below 40°C, with nothing extracted, boosted, concentrated or blended in.
We also commission separate testing of the complete oil for oxidation, moisture, fatty-acid composition and heavy metals. We publish the reports so you can review the actual results for yourself instead of relying on one headline number.
