Aroma Tierra brings the finest Tamanu Oil extracted from carefully handpicked organically grown Tamanu nuts. We use the best quality Tamanu nuts that nature can offer. Our Tamanu Oil is 100% pure, natural, organic, cold-pressed, and virgin, with no further refining or processing to ensure that all the nutrients remain intact. Our Tamanu Oil is dark green in color and has a rich, walnut-like characteristic nutty aroma.

Aroma Tierra Tamanu Oil is ‘Certified Organic’ by ECOCERT, a globally reputed certification body from France, that has a stringent evaluation process. Our production standards guarantee that everything from the beginning to the end is organically made and that the oil is free from chemicals, preservatives, solvents, and hexane.

Our careful cold-pressed extraction method ensures that the delicate nutrients of Tamanu are not destroyed by heat. Further, we do not deodorize, decolorize, or refine our Tamanu Oil. Refining the oil elongates its shelf life, but comes at a cost of destroying some of its natural nutrients. Similarly, deodorization rids the oil of its nutty aroma, but it compromises the nutritional profile of the oil. Therefore, we emphasize on using the cold-pressed, non-deodorized, and extra-virgin quality to gain the maximum benefits. 

Furthermore, we use specially designed violet-glass bottles to preserve the potency of the oil and elongate its shelf life.

Today, using the term 'organic' is unregulated in most markets and is often misleading. Products labeled as 'organic' offer no guarantee that they are free from synthetic chemicals or pesticides unless certified by a credible independent body.

Aroma Tierra organic range is 'Certified organic' by ECOCERT, a globally reputed independent certification body from France that follows very stringent organic certification standards. We ensure that everything from beginning to end is organic – farmland is organic for at least 3 years, seeds are organic and non-GMO, farming is done without pesticides and chemical fertilizers, cleaning agents are organic, extraction is organic, and packaging does not contaminate the organic product.

Calophyllum inophyllum oil, or Tamanu oil, is known as 'Green Gold' for its unparalleled skin-regenerating and healing benefits. It is extracted from the nuts of the evergreen Tamanu trees native to French Polynesia. The Polynesian people soon discovered its potent skin restorative qualities and used the oil to improve their skin health. Polynesian women used Tamanu Oil on infants regularly to prevent rashes and dryness. Tamanu oil is long used in the Pacific Islands and Southeast Asia to treat cuts, burns, eczema, psoriasis, acne, and even foot and body odor.

Extensive scientific research on Tamanu Oil has established its extraordinary healing, skin-repair, and skin-regeneration properties. It is a powerhouse of skin-nourishing nutrients such as neo-flavonoids, antioxidants, omega 6 & 9 fatty acids, stearic acid, and palmitic acid. The oil's unique healing properties are mainly attributed to the presence of the resinous compounds, besides the rich unsaturated fatty acid profile. The resinous part of the oil contains neo-flavonoids which are instrumental for its potent skin-repair and healing properties.

An overwhelmingly versatile oil, Tamanu Oil can address all your skin care needs from maintaining a well-hydrated youthful skin to repairing damaged skin. Tamanu oil is particularly well known for treating scars, blemishes, acne marks, stretch marks, pigmentation, and dark circles. Its anti-inflammatory, and anti-microbial, and skin-regenerating properties help in accelerating the skin’s natural healing process. It is known to soothe several skin conditions such as acne, dry skin, irritated and itchy skin, cracked heels, rashes, and insect bites. Its potent antioxidant property and rich fatty acid composition help in preventing premature aging. Tamanu oil is an excellent addition to the hair-care regime too - it deeply nourishes the scalp, treats dandruff, and conditions dry and dull hair.
