Unrefined Coconut Oil, also known as Cocos Nucifera, is a multi beneficial, truly spectacular oil with a deep and mildly intoxicating scent of pure coconut pulp. Coconut oil is available in several different forms, however, the two most common types are refined and unrefined. Unrefined Coconut Oil, also known as “virgin” or “extra-virgin,” is made from the first pressing of raw, fresh coconut at a low heat and then filtered – without the addition of any chemicals in the process. Organic coconut oil comes from organic coconut farms that do not using chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
