Organic black cumin oil
Black cumin oil: a natural jewel appreciated for thousands of years.
The oil from Nigella sativa, the black cumin, is known as the oil of the pharaohs. Nutty, herbaceous, peppery. Black cumin oil brings a very special touch not only in taste, but also in content. However, in order to extract the coveted traditional oil, it is necessary to get up early for the first time: Even before sunrise, the fruit capsules of the true black cumin (Nigella sativa), studded with oil seeds, are harvested to protect them from the moisture of the morning dew or fog.
The roots of the heat-loving black cumin plant can be found in the West Asian region. From the Bosphorus, Nigella sativa made its early foray into North Africa, Southern Europe, India and Pakistan, establishing itself in local cuisines as a spice, oil and in seed form. Soon the people of these regions also recognized the inner values of the velvety-black seeds and their cold-pressed oil, consumed the natural jewel specifically to accompany food and applied it for external care.
