And unlike the mist-covered terrain of the mountains, these plains offer a bright and warm landscape that is very much reflected in the raw, earthy character of the sesame itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter three to four months of cultivation, the harvested black sesame seeds are collected in their natural, unpolished state by our sangha, and rather than rushing them through mechanical dryers, we allow the seeds to \u003cstrong\u003enaturally dry\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ein\u003c\/strong\u003e our \u003cstrong\u003esolar shed\u003c\/strong\u003e for an entire week. We adhere strictly to the traditional methods of processing the sesame seeds — unlike the commercial mills that often use dehydration machines to remove moisture within hours, so that it allows the extraction process to begin the very same day. While this shortens the overall process considerably, yet excessive heat at this stage exposes the seeds to unnecessary thermal stress, before they are extracted for the oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead, we chose \u003cstrong\u003eநிதானம்\u003c\/strong\u003e (Nidhanam) — The virtue of a slow, patient process of our traditional bull-driven method, taking place at our sangha farms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce naturally dried, the sesame seeds are taken to our 25 kg traditional stone mill, where the vaigai wood, powered by our humanely raised Kangeyam bulls, gently crush the seeds at an exceptionally slow rate of just \u003cstrong\u003e2 RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e — two rotations per minute (moving just twice the circumference of the stone mill, per minute). For nearly two hours, the seeds are gradually churned between the stone and the vaigai wood. This deliberately unhurried movement helps minimise friction and excessive heat, allowing the natural character and delicate aroma of the sesame to remain within the oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe outcome of our bull driven traditional process is a rich, earthy, stone-pressed sesame oil — extracted not through speed, but through patience, and in the \u003cstrong\u003etime-honored\u003c\/strong\u003e way of our ancestors with care, so that what reaches your home remains as close as possible to the sesame — in its pure natural form.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tribal Sangha","offers":[{"title":"PACK OF 1  (100 ML)","offer_id":49043977797802,"sku":null,"price":500.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"PACK OF 2  (2 x 100 ML)","offer_id":49043977830570,"sku":null,"price":900.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/1691\/8954\/files\/stone-pressed-sesame-baby-oil-bottle.png?v=1788703139","url":"https:\/\/tribalsangha.in\/products\/stone-pressed-sesame-baby-oil","provider":"Tribal Sangha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
