Our Organic Argan Oil is extracted from the aromatic nuts of a tree native to Morocco. The 100% organic nuts are traditionally cracked by hand by Berber women and after roasting are cold pressed into argan oil using small spindle presses - the liquid gold of Morocco. As a nutritional supplement, roasted argan oil is characterised by its high content of unsaturated fatty acids. It is also a valuable source of vitamin E.
Traditionally from Morocco
The distinctive argan tree now only grows on 820,000 hectares in south-west Morocco. This area was declared a biosphere reserve in 1998. The argan nut produces a golden-yellow, intensely nutty and tangy oil that is used both as a fine edible oil and as a premium ingredient in natural cosmetics. It is rightly called the "liquid gold of Morocco". The collection and processing of argan nuts is traditionally a women's job in Morocco.
At Ölmühle Solling, we are committed to preserving traditional cultivation and artisanal oil production. That is why our high-quality organic virgin argan oil comes from a small factory near Agadir, which in turn works with women's cooperatives in Essaouira and Ait Baamrame/Sidi Ifni. This creates much-needed local jobs.

Usage
Also popular in cosmetics
virgin argan oil is also suitable for skin care. Its moisturising and softening properties prevent the skin from drying out. Thanks to its vitamin E content, argan oil provides antioxidant protection.
