COCONUT ISLAND PRODUCTS LTD. is a local producer of 100% Pure Coconut Oil.
From wild growing coconut trees along coastal and rural areas of Trinidad & Tobago, villagers collect and prepare the coconuts for sale. Several varieties are included, ranging in shape, size, and flavor.
Each 'dry-coconut' is husked, and cracked open, to drain the water and expose the kernel inside—a milky white flesh with a sweet, creamy, nutty aroma.
The kernel is shredded, and squeezed to extract coconut milk. After sitting for a few hours, the milk naturally separates into two layers—cream and water.
The cream is first fired up to a boil, then turned down to low heat, gently stirring for hours, allowing the moisture to evaporate and the oil to naturally separate from the curd. A slow, delicate process. After cooling and filtering, TRADITIONALLY CRAFTED 100% Pure Coconut Oil is made.
This is the way it was done for centuries. An art, carefully handed down through generations, and still practiced today in many rural, coconut-growing villages around the world.
