Our Story
It began with one wooden ganuga in Hyderabad.
In 2018, our family set out with a simple belief — that oil should be food, not a chemical. We watched supermarket shelves fill with refined, deodorised oils stripped of everything that made them nourishing, and we wanted to bring back the way our grandparents ate.
The slow way
Every bottle is pressed cold in a traditional wooden ganuga, at low temperature, in small batches. No heat, no refining, no chemicals — just the seed and patience. It's slower and yields less, but it keeps the aroma, the colour and the goodness intact.
Honest, always
We press in small lots so nothing sits on a shelf. We lab-test for purity. And we price honestly. What reaches your kitchen is exactly what we'd cook for our own family.
