Avocado Oil
Rare and Precious
Argan oil is extracted from the kernels of the argan tree, which is native to a small region of southwestern Morocco. Due to the limited growing area, the traditional harvesting methods, and the labor-intensive extraction process, argan oil is considered one of the rarest oils in the world.

Mechanical Pressing (Cold-Pressed)
This method is preferred for its ability to preserve the oil's natural qualities and delicate flavor:
- Preparation: Avocados are first sorted and washed to remove any dirt or debris.
- Mashing: The flesh of the avocado is then mashed into a pulp.
- Malaxation: The pulp is gently kneaded (malaxation) to encourage the oil droplets to release from the avocado flesh. This process may involve applying heat or pressure.
- Centrifugation: The resulting mixture is spun in a centrifuge to separate the oil from the pulp and other solids.
- Filtering: The extracted oil may undergo further filtering to remove any remaining impurities.
