We present to you this very special black sesame oil, considered to be the best of all oils in Ayurveda. It can be called as the ‘king of all oils’, because of its immense beneficial qualities and multi purpose utility.

We at Kripadhara are dedicated to revive the long lost Vedic ways of extracting pure oil, as this method is vital to retain the benefits stored within  natural oils. The traditional way of oil extraction in a kolhu driven by bulls, is replicated by wood pressing oil machines, to produce the same non toxic, cold pressed, extra virgin quality of black sesame oil. This means that the oil is untouched by the ill-effects of modern methods that use chemicals, destroying the minerals and vitamins within the sesame seeds, that make it beneficial.

In this wood pressing method the yield of oil is quite less, only about 30 to 35 percent of the seed, but no beneficial ingredient of the oil is destroyed by this process, which involves rotation at very slow speed, so that the temperature does not rise beyond 49 degree Celsius at any point. This helps retain the healthy anti oxidants and minerals that get destroyed in the high heat methods. Extraction at higher temperature than this, makes the oil toxic and ineffective.

The fats and proteins that remain in the oil cakes or khali, is designed by nature to become a healthy ingredient in animal fodder, making the milk of the cow specially nutritious.

Very important to note is that our sesame oil is 100% pure, as we do not use jaggery or molasses to make sesame oil extraction easier, nor do we refine or blend our oils with cheaper oils like palm oil, argemone oil or even mineral oil, that are used to make it cost effective. Thus the purity and nutrients are fully retained.

We filter our oils by the traditional way of overnight gravitational sedimentation, not by chemicals that destroy the essential nutrients from the oil. It’s not a concern if found any tiny sediments at the bottom of the bottle.

The seeds we use are of export quality, clean, spotless, sortexed and dry, packed in air tight bags. The machine is cleaned and sanitised each day by the traditional way.

All the above factors constitute to make this sesame oil extremely healthy, rare and difficult to find in modern times.

We use lab tested food grade glass bottles with leakproof cork.
