ORGANIC Black cumin seed oil unfiltered

This unfiltered organic black cumin oil is cold-pressed fresh from the mill from Egyptian black cumin seeds at Ölmühle Solling. As the oil is not filtered after the gentle pressing process, it still contains all the valuable lees and suspended matter. It is also rich in essential oils and fatty substances. Compared to filtered black cumin oil, unfiltered oil is thicker and has a more intense flavor.

Please swirl gently before use to distribute the sediment. Our organic products are natural products that are subject to natural fluctuations in their composition. This can affect not only the taste and fragrance but also the color of the products.

At Ölmühle Solling, we have been producing mill-fresh black cumin oil from organically grown and fully ripened Egyptian black cumin seeds for over 20 years.

We have been offering this Egyptian treasure in unfiltered form since this spring. The unfiltered black cumin seed oil is characterized by a darker color and a stronger, slightly pungent taste; the sediment contains valuable substances that are normally filtered out. The essential, double unsaturated linoleic acid dominates in black cumin seed oil. The high proportion of essential oils, bitter substances and tannins are the reason for the popularity of black cumin oil for a variety of applications in folklore.

We also offer our filtered black cumin seed oil in vegan capsules for a tasteless intake.

Secondary plant substance thymoquinone

Thymoquinone is a secondary plant substance that belongs to the group of bioactive substances known as terpenes. Terpenes play an important role in the plant kingdom and fulfill various functions such as protecting against pests, attracting pollinators and defending against pathogens. Terpenes also contribute to the characteristic scents and aromas of many other plants. For example, they are contained in the essential oils of citrus fruits, conifers and flowers such as lavender and rosemary.

Thymoquinone has a characteristic aroma profile that is often described as spicy, earthy and slightly bitter. It exudes a strong, aromatic scent that is sometimes compared to a hint of black pepper, oregano or thyme. Our black cumin seed oils currently have a thymoquinone content of 703 mg/100 g.
