Wooden chekku

The heritage of Thuli

Slow by design.

Most oil on the shelf is extracted with heat and solvents, then bleached and deodorised. Ours goes through four patient steps that our village has followed for generations.

  1. 01Heirloom seeds

    Non-GMO seeds sourced from farmers we know, harvested at their peak.

  2. 02Sun-dried on stone

    Dried slowly on stone floors under the Tamil sun to draw out moisture.

  3. 03Slow wooden press

    Crushed in a Vaagai-wood chekku at low speed, so the oil never overheats.

  4. 04Settled, not filtered

    Left to settle naturally in sunlit jars for four days. No chemical filters.

Ask us
Do you deliver across India?+

How do I pay?+

Place your order on the site and we'll confirm it on WhatsApp. You can pay by UPI when we confirm, or choose Cash on Delivery where it's available.

What is a wooden chekku (மரச்செக்கு)?+

A traditional oil press made of wood, turned slowly so the seeds never heat up. The oil keeps its natural aroma, colour and nutrients.

Why does the oil look cloudy or have sediment?+

That's a sign it hasn't been chemically filtered or bleached. It's natural and safe. Store the bottle upright and let it settle.

Do you supply shops, restaurants or bulk orders?+

Yes. We supply retailers, restaurants, caterers and resellers with wholesale pricing. Send us an enquiry from the Bulk Orders page.

How should I store it?+

Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and close the cap tightly after use. Coconut oil solidifies in the cold. Stand the bottle in warm water to melt it.
