Every oil in this kit is extracted the traditional way, using a slow-moving wooden kolhu (ghani) that keeps temperatures below 40°C throughout the pressing process. This cold, unhurried method is what separates a wood-pressed oil from the refined, deodorised oils sitting on most supermarket shelves — it protects the natural aroma, colour, and nutrients that heat-based refining strips away. There’s no chemical solvent extraction, no bleaching, and no added flavouring anywhere in this kit.What you get is four oils that taste and smell exactly the way nature intended: mustard oil with its sharp, pungent kick that Odia and Bengali kitchens have relied on for generations; coconut oil with its sweet, tropical aroma; peanut oil with its nutty warmth, ideal for deep frying and everyday sautéing; and sunflower oil, light and neutral, perfect when you want the ingredients of a dish to speak for themselves.

This kit exists for one simple reason — people cook differently, and there’s no single “best” oil for every dish or every skin type. Some households swear by mustard oil for tadka, others reach for coconut oil for their hair, and many keep sunflower oil around purely for its light, non-overpowering taste. Rather than asking you to guess and buy a full litre of something you might not use often, we’ve made it easy to sample all four and decide what earns a permanent spot in your kitchen.
