Cold-extracted virgin coconut oil made from fresh coconuts (not dried copra), for everyday skin, hair, and kitchen use.
Not all coconut oil is created equal. Virgin coconut oil differs from the regular kind in that it’s extracted from fresh coconut milk, and not dried copra, without the involvement of any heat in the extraction process.
This one from Urban Platter is made from young Pollachi coconuts using processes such as fermentation, churning (centrifugal separation), refrigeration, and the action of enzymes to seperate the oil from the water or moisture in fresh coconut milk. As it is extracted from fresh coconut milk without high heat, higher levels of antioxidants, vitamins, and aroma is preserved when compared to cold-pressed coconut oil derived from dried copra.
We are driven by curiosity, and a deep love for product, and are committed to transparency. We scour the internet to find products we love—from brands we trust. We look for things that stand out for their distinctive design, quality and mindfulness. We recommend these finds on the Souk website and in our newsletters—and tell you exactly why we like them. Like any friend would do.
If you're new to this, here's the deal — when you buy something through a link on Souk, we may earn a percentage of the sale, but it is at no extra cost to you. This allows us to remain independent and focused on curating only what we genuinely love. Any ad or sponsored post will be clearly labelled as such — there are no secret product placements on Souk! Each time you use our links to buy something, it supports our team's hard work as your trusted shopping buddy.
