Melrose Almond Oil

Release your inner master chef with Melrose Kitchen Oils - your best guarantee of freshness, purity and quality. The importance of the essential fatty acids in vegetable oil demands nothing less. Melrose Fresh Unrefined Oils will impart extra aroma and flavor as well as nutritional benefits, just like any other whole food which has not been denatured or processed.

Good quality oils need to be expeller-pressed at temperatures below 45^oC and not solvent extracted. They should not be subjected to high heat temperatures, deodorizing, bleaching or alkali refining. Melrose Organic Unrefined oils are produced by pressing seeds at less than 40^oC. The oil is then bottled under nitrogen and packed in amber glass to reduce both photon and auto-oxidation preserving both the nutritional value and the fresh taste.
