Melrose Organic Unrefined Avocado Oil
The avocado tree (Persea gratissima) was first found growing in South
America and seedlings were brought to Australia where it has thrived,
particularly in Queensland. In contrast to most other vegetable oils,
the avocado oil comes from the flesh instead of the stone of the fruit.
The oil is a greenish colour with a nutty flavour. It has good keeping
qualities because of an inbuilt antioxidant system. Clinical trials have
shown Avocado oil to be more easily absorbed by the skin, partly due to
its content of palmitoleic. Our Organic Avocado oil is grown and cold
pressed on farm at Blackbutt, Central Queensland.
Australian Avocados grown organically in central Queensland produce an exquisite flavour. Suitable as a salad oil. Store at room temperature out of sunlight.
Unrefined Avocado Oilis one of the few oils containing Palmitoleic. It has excellent keeping qualities because of an inbuilt anti-oxidant system.
