Our Virgin Coconut Oil is made from fresh, mature coconuts and crafted through a clean, simple cold-press process.
No chemical refining.
No bleaching.
No deodorizing.
What stays in the jar is exactly what nature intended — the natural aroma, flavor, and integrity of real coconut oil.
But purity is only part of the story.
With every jar, you support the people behind it. We work directly with farmers, create steady livelihoods for women’s collectives, and make thoughtful choices that are kinder to the land.
Tengin is built on traditional values — honesty, fairness, and respect for nature.
We don’t cut corners. We don’t over-process.
Just real coconut oil, made the right way, so you can use it every day with complete peace of mind.
● Versatile Use: Great for cooking, baking, frying, or even a small spoon in your routine. Many people like VCO as a simple everyday oil that fits into a healthy lifestyle.
● Heart Health: A clean cooking fat with no trans fats and an easy swap for regular use.
Skin Care :
● Moisturizing: Rub a few drops between your palms and apply on damp skin. It helps with dryness and leaves skin feeling soft.
● Anti-Aging: It is naturally rich in vitamin E, which helps protect skin from daily wear and keeps it looking smooth.
Hair Care:
● Scalp Nourishment: Often used before a wash to help with dryness and flakes on the scalp.
● Deep Conditioning: Fatty acids sink in well and help lock in moisture, which can reduce dryness over time.
Baby Care:
● Gentle Massage Oil: Light, non-sticky, and easily absorbed, ideal for soothing and moisturizing baby’s delicate skin.
● Nappy Rash Treatment: A thin layer can help calm irritated skin and keep it comfortable.
Tightly Sealed: Ensure the container is securely closed to prevent contamination and moisture exposure.
Avoid Heat Exposure: Store away from heat sources and areas with fluctuating temperatures to maintain the oil's quality and effectiveness.
Refrigeration (Optional): Refrigeration is optional but can extend shelf life in particularly hot climates. The oil may solidify when cold, but it will return to its liquid state at room temperature.
Shelf Life: Use within 8-10 months of opening for optimal freshness and benefits. Check for any off smells or changes in texture as indicators of spoilage.

Cold-Pressed Copra Oil
HARVESTED • PRESSED • BOTTLED
In 24 hours.
Sannamma picks at dawn. Umesh presses by noon. Flesh goes directly from tree to press — no drying, no waiting. This is what "virgin" means..
20 fresh Coconuts = 1 Liter Oil
Fresh flesh is mostly water. It takes 15–20 coconuts to yield 1 litre — the 2nd highest natural source of lauric acid on earth, next only to mother's milk.
177°C.
Medium heat only.
Gentle sautéing, light tadka, baking, drizzling. Best used unheated — champi, skin, baby massage, oil pulling. Never deep fry with Raw.
#1 Finishing
& Living oil.
Drizzle over salads, smoothie bowls, porridge. Use for champi, skincare, baby massage. Never heated — so lauric acid, antioxidants, and fresh coconut aroma are fully intact.

8 to 10 months
The same coconut — placed in the village attic for 8 to 10 months until it becomes copra. Then Swamyanna cold-presses it on the mara chekku ghana. Time does what machines cannot.
1.5 kg Copra = 1 Liter Oil
8 months in the attic removes the water. What remains is concentrated oil. Just 1.5 kg of copra yields 1 full litre — richer, deeper, more efficient.
232°C.
Ready for anything.
Dosas, deep frying, high-heat tadka, curries, roasting. "Dry." is built for the stove. Use it everywhere "Raw." cannot go.
#1 Everyday
Cooking oil.
Ten months aged. Mara chekku pressed. 232°C smoke point. This is how every South Indian kitchen cooked before refined oil arrived.
