TIGERNUTS OIL

TIGERNUTS OIL is golden brown in color and has a rich, nutty taste and is a fantastic component of beauty products. It has a high oleic acid content and low acidity, and so is excellent for the skin. This is a high quality oil extracted by a cold, virgin process in order to ensure that it retains all the unique qualities of the Tigernut itself. Tigernut oil was first used by Egyptians 4000 years ago in preference to olive oil.
