Product Description

Splash sunshine into your plate with our golden flaxseed oil. Cold-pressed and unrefined, it is an excellent source of polyunsaturated fats. We use a special press to protect our flaxseed oil from oxygen and light, and once bottled the oils are stored in a cool and dark area. Our careful pressing and bottling method preserves the nutritional wealth and natural flavour. Drizzle liberally over salad greens, use as a base in homemade houmous, add flavour to stews or spoon into nut butters for a more spreadable texture.

Not suitable for frying or cooking.

Also included in our range of Organic Oils are the Biona olive oils, rapeseed oil, hemp seed oil, as well as our best-selling Coconut oils.
