Tropicai Virgin Coconut Oil, 35g from the Philippines

Tropicai Virgin Coconut Oil from a Fair Trade Project in the Philippines is extraordinary, as it is being produced in a much more gentle and careful manner than any other Coconut Oil. You will smell and taste the difference! In contrast to other Coconut Oils,it is not refined,not deodorized,not hydrogenated and not bleached.

Virgin Coconut Oil can only be achieved by using fresh coconut meat or what is called non-copra. Chemicals and high heating are not used in further refining, since the natural, pure coconut oil is very stable with a shelf life of several years.

This Virgin Coconut Oil comes from the Philippines, produced from freshley picked, mature coconuts. These coconut trees are not being treated with chemicals and are certified „organic“ according to EU standards. DE-ÖKO-012. The nuts are being harvested by hand and the fresh coconut meat is dried. After this, the white meat is made to pass through a cold process expeller at a controlled temperature of no more than 43 degrees Celcius. The oil is then filtered which results in a crystal clear coconut oil that retains the distinct scent and taste of coconuts. Laboratory tests show that this is also a very high quality coconut oil, with the lauric acid content being around 50 %. It has a fine and mild aroma.
