Flavor Spray dried from cold-pressed virgin coconut oil, the powder retains the fresh aroma and the clean taste of freshly grated coconut. Depending on the harvest and season every batch can vary in color and to a minor degree in taste as it is a natural cottage-industry product that does not use any chemical refining, additives or preservatives to standardize product like with large-scale commercially pressed coconut oils.
Ingredient 76% organic virgin coconut oil, spray-dried with 24% organic rice flour dextrose. In a perfect world, it will be possible to spray dry organic virgin coconut oil all by itself. In the real world, however, the oil needs a solid particle to latch onto when it is spray-dried, this is why organic rice flour dextrose is used. No other preservatives or additives are used. This product is still pending organic certification which is why we refer to it as Natural virgin Coconut Oil powder. Rest assured, the two ingredients used are organic.

Benefits A coconut has more naturally occurring minerals and phytonutrients than any other seed or nut used for extracting oil. This is simply the reason why coconut oil has many advantages over other oil sources. Comprised of approximately 64 per cent medium-chain fatty acids, virgin coconut oil is considered a functional superfood. It is naturally rich in Lauric acid (approx.51 percent), only the second most natural source of lauric acid; mother’s milk is the other natural source. Beyond its nutritional benefits, coconut oil also has healing properties that support health and general well-being.

100+ years of coconut expertise Our Coconut Oil is made by a third-generation coconut miller an engineer by profession who has fine-tuned the process of extracting the best quality oils to make this powder. Backed by generations of coconut expertise, and certified with ISO and Organic standards, the mill plays a vital role in the employment, welfare and wellbeing of the village community. The children of our workforce are provided with school books and stationery for the entire school year! The mill also operates a not-for-profit brick and tile factory and a metal workshop that provides work for the villagers, building material for the community, and keeps the factory equipment ship-shape! Staff quarters are also provided for those who travel far from home. What’s more, we even grow our own organic vegetables onsite so the factory kitchen can provide a wholesome healthy lunch buffet for all at work.
Price for quality Our products are not mass-produced in vast industrialised factories. So we do not enjoy the economies of scale that supermarket brands do. We pay the millers and farmers a fair price. Specifically, batch-crafted for New Zealand, Kokonati products are made with multigenerational expertise and knowledge to be the best quality they can be and so easily justify the premium price for the premium quality you are getting.
