Seatons Argan Oil

Argan oil is the fixed oil obtained via traditional methods from the nut kernels of the fruit of the argan (Argania spinosa) tree. The argan tree is only found in the South West of Morocco and is related to the shea tree. The small oval green/yellow fruit becomes brown when ripe (which takes approximately two years) and contains a very hard shell that encloses up to three kernels. These kernels are roasted before cold pressing to produce a yellow/orange oil with a characteristic nutty odour.
