THE ZHAGARAM STANDARD

Good groundnut oil starts long before the chekku.

The groundnuts you choose, how they are stored and when they are pressed all show up in the final oil.
FROM GROUNDNUT TO BOTTLE

We don't press every groundnut we can buy.

Groundnuts naturally change as they age. Poor storage, excess moisture and inferior kernels can affect flavour and quality before pressing even begins.

We select mature groundnuts, inspect them before production and press slowly in our traditional iron chekku. The oil is then allowed to settle naturally instead of being refined, bleached or deodorised.

Small variations in colour, aroma and flavour between batches are natural. Instead of asking you to simply trust us, we test the batch and publish the results.

Pure is a claim. Numbers are proof.

Why testing matters
80%

did not meet at least one applicable quality requirement evaluated in one Tamil Nadu study.

Tested 75 samples Across - Coconut · Groundnut · Sesame in Tamil Nadu

Cold-pressed is a process. Not a quality certificate.

An independent published study evaluated cottage-level cold-pressed coconut, groundnut and sesame oil samples collected across Tamil Nadu. Its findings are a reminder that how an oil is processed and how its quality is verified are two different questions.

So we don't ask you to trust the words on our bottle.

Traditional processing deserves modern verification. That's why we disclose the quality results behind released Zhagaram batches — so you can see the evidence for yourself.
