These almonds are gathered and allowed to mature through a \u003cstrong\u003epatient drying process\u003c\/strong\u003e. Once harvested, the shelled almonds are placed in our solar shed, where they are gently dried over nearly three weeks — allowing the moisture to leave gradually, without rushing the process through heated mechanical dryers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommercial mills often accelerate this stage using heated drying panels so that extraction can begin within a much shorter period. While this saves time, we believe an ingredient as delicate as the mamra almond deserves a gentler passage from harvest to oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, we choose \u003cstrong\u003eநிதானம்\u003c\/strong\u003e (Nidhanam) — the virtue of steadiness, patience and allowing a process to take the time it naturally requires.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the extended drying period, the almonds are brought to our \u003cstrong\u003e25 kg traditional stone mill\u003c\/strong\u003e. Here, a traditional vaigai wood, driven by our humanely raised Kangeyam bulls, gradually works upon the firm, woody almonds at just two rotations per minute (moving just twice the circumference of the stone mill, per minute). For two hours, the almonds are slowly crushed and worked between the stone and wood, and the measured \u003cstrong\u003e2 RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e pace is intended to minimize unnecessary friction and excessive heat — allowing the natural character of the almond to remain present with \u003cstrong\u003eVitamin E\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003emicronutrients\u003c\/strong\u003e, as its oil is gradually released.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat emerges is a naturally rich, stone-pressed, almond baby oil — born from \u003cstrong\u003eHimalayan almonds\u003c\/strong\u003e, shaped by patience, and extracted through a method that places tradition before speed. A practice inherited from generations before us, carried forward with deliberate care, so that the nourishment of the almond reaches you with as little interference as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tribal Sangha","offers":[{"title":"PACK OF 1  (100 ML)","offer_id":49043988644010,"sku":null,"price":900.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"PACK OF 2  (2 x 100 ML)","offer_id":49043988676778,"sku":null,"price":1700.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/1691\/8954\/files\/stone-pressed-almond-baby-oil-bottle.png?v=1788705145","url":"https:\/\/tribalsangha.in\/products\/stone-pressed-almond-baby-oil","provider":"Tribal Sangha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
