Within the sphere of natural wellness, Pure Cold Pressed Gingelly (Sesame) Oil enjoys a distinguished reputation, often called the "King of Oils." Obtained directly from local farmers, Sekkadi cold pressed gingelly/sesame oil is extracted from premium country black and brown sesame seeds.
To maintain exceptional quality, the oil is produced alongside Karupatti (natural palm jaggery) using a traditional wooden crusher called Vaagai Marachekku. This gentle, low-temperature method retains the oil's essential nutrients, ensuring it remains abundant in minerals like calcium, iron, phosphorus, and copper, as well as Vitamins D, E, and K.
