   Our Coconuts are grown and processed in Puerto Armuelles using low heat to dry the chapra it is then pressed to extract the oil and filtered twice to remove the chaff from the oil. Coconut oil is non carcinogenic at frying temperatures, as is Olive oil. Coconut oil is medicinal externally and internally.

     My VCO is not refined, bleached or deodorized. At low altitudes in Panama the oil is liquid above 78 deg. F. the oil turns to a semi solid. If you live in the highlands, put in a hot water bath or oven at 100 F. to liquidize.

     I prefer Paypal payments but can accept payment and ship via Feletes Chavales, Uno Express and Transportes Ferguson. I am located in Volcan. I am usually iin David once a week for deliveries there.    

    Most coconut oil sold in America is made from copra and is Refined, Bleached and Deodorized. Copra is the dried meat of the coconut which is left in the open to dry. Mold may grow on it, flies may land on it, and the meat turns brown and rancid while it dries. The oil industry does not worry about this, as they will "clean the oil up" at the end to remove these unfavorable constituents. Once the meat of the coconut has dried and shriveled it is easily removed from the shell and the oil is pressed out. Many companies use solvents to help in extracting the oil from the meat. Once this crude oil is produced and the solvent "reclaimed", they then add lye to the oil. This step in the refining process will drop out free fatty acids, some of the Vitamin E, as well as other nutrients and components. These items drop out as soaps to be filtered. Then they put the oil through a bleaching process which will turn it from the brown rancid color to a nice white/clear color. This process also eliminates more vitamin E and other nutrients. And then lastly they deodorize the coconut oil by bubbling gas through the oil at high temperatures while pulling the vapors off with a vacuum. This will eliminate the bad taste and smell of the crude oil it came from. In the end you have a tasteless, odorless, coconut oil with only fatty acid chains remaining "seasoned" with traces of solvents and residues from the refining process. 

Enjoy using a locally produced healthy product.
