In traditional wellness practices, Pure Cold Pressed Gingelly (Sesame) Oil is held in the highest regard, earning the title "King of Oils." Directly obtained from local farmers, Sekkadi cold pressed gingelly/sesame oil is crafted from premium country black and brown sesame seeds.

To ensure unparalleled quality, the oil is extracted alongside Karupatti (natural palm jaggery) using a traditional wooden crusher called Vaagai Marachekku. This gentle, low-heat technique preserves the oil's essential nutrients, keeping it abundant in minerals such as calcium, iron, phosphorus, and copper, along with Vitamins D, E, and K.
