Origin
Bharatpur, Rajasthan. 100% organic black mustard seed (Brassica nigra). Nothing else.

Method
Kachi ghani cold press under 45°C, settled 72 hours, filtered through cotton. Unrefined and unblended.
Care
Keep the container closed, in a cool, dark cupboard away from the stove. No refrigeration needed.
Pressed from black mustard in a traditional kachi ghani, which keeps the allyl isothiocyanate that gives this oil its bite. That pungency is the point — it is what makes a Bengali fish curry or a jar of aam ka achaar taste the way it is supposed to. Warm it to smoking and let it cool slightly before use if you prefer the edge taken off.
The seed is crushed slowly at a temperature that never rises above about 45°C. Industrial oil is extracted with heat and a chemical solvent, then bleached and deodorised to make it uniform. Cold-pressing skips all of that, which is why the oil keeps its colour, aroma and nutrients — and why it varies slightly from batch to batch.
That is unrefined oil behaving normally. Fine particles of the seed stay suspended and settle over time. Refined oils are filtered and chemically treated until nothing is left to settle. Give the bottle a gentle swirl before use.
A cool, dark cupboard with the cap closed tight. Keep it away from the stove — repeated heating and cooling shortens its life. Refrigeration is not needed and may cause harmless cloudiness.
Nine months from the date of pressing, printed on every bottle along with the batch number. Because there are no preservatives, we recommend using it within two months of opening.
Groundnuts from farms around Latur and sunflower from Solapur, both in Maharashtra. Every batch carries the number of the pressing lot, so we can trace it back to the source.
