Black Seed Oil – Virgin Cold Pressed
Cold pressed. Unfiltered. Full spectrum.
Not just oil, but the whole seed profile.
Built around composition, not convenience.
Virgin cold pressed black seed oil (Nigella sativa) for daily use, unrefined and unfiltered to retain naturally occurring compounds and seed sediment.
100 ml | Oil
- Unfiltered with natural seed sediment
- Virgin cold pressed from Egyptian Nigella sativa seeds
- Third-party verified thymoquinone content (~1.8%)
- Full spectrum composition, not isolated fractions
- Tested for purity and compound profile
Overview
This black seed oil is produced using traditional cold pressing methods, followed by a controlled resting process to retain and reintegrate seed sediment. Unlike filtered oils, this preserves a broader range of naturally occurring compounds.
The result is a dense, full-spectrum oil that reflects the composition of the original seed, rather than a simplified or refined extract.
- Cold pressed, not heat processed or chemically extracted
- Includes both oil and sediment fractions
- Built around whole-seed integrity
Why This Product
- Retains the full composition of the seed, not just the oil fraction
- Includes sediment to preserve naturally occurring compounds
- Independently tested for thymoquinone and related compounds
- Avoids over-processing and unnecessary filtration
Key Characteristics
- Approximately 1.8% thymoquinone (third-party verified)
- Contains monoterpenes including thymol, carvacrol and p-cymene
- Naturally includes both essential oil and fatty acid fractions
- Unfiltered with visible sediment
Potential Use
This product is typically used as part of a balanced routine.
It may be associated with:
- General wellbeing and balance
- Use within structured daily routines
- Inclusion within broader nutritional practices
- Traditional dietary use
Composition / Structure
- Nigella sativa seeds contain both fixed oils (fatty acids) and essential oil fractions
- The essential oil portion typically represents a small percentage of the total oil content
- Compounds such as thymoquinone exist within this fraction alongside other volatile compounds
- This product preserves both fractions rather than isolating one
Full Spectrum vs Extracted Oil
Cold pressed black seed oil differs significantly from more refined or extracted formats.
- Cold pressing retains both lipid and volatile compound fractions
- Unfiltered oil includes sediment, which contributes additional naturally occurring compounds
- The result is a broader, more complete representation of the seed
Rather than isolating specific compounds, this approach maintains the natural balance found in the original material.
Cold Pressed vs CO₂ Extracted
Different methods produce different outcomes.
Cold Pressed Oil
- Retains full-spectrum composition
- Includes both fatty acids and volatile compounds
- Unfiltered formats may include sediment
- Reflects the natural structure of the seed
CO₂ Extracted Oil
- Targets specific volatile compounds
- Typically higher concentration of certain fractions
- More refined and selective
- Does not represent the full seed composition
Both methods have their place, but they are not interchangeable. This product is designed around full-spectrum integrity rather than selective extraction.
Processing / Production
- Seeds are cold pressed without heat or chemical solvents
- Oil is rested to allow natural sediment separation
- Sediment is reintroduced prior to bottling
- No filtration or refinement applied
Quality & Sourcing
- Sourced from Egyptian Nigella sativa seeds
- Third-party tested for thymoquinone and compound profile
- Produced using controlled cold pressing methods
- Supplied in line with UK standards
How It Compares
- Unlike filtered oils, this retains seed sediment
- Unlike refined oils, this preserves volatile compounds
- Unlike CO₂ extracts, this is not fractionated
- Built around full-spectrum composition rather than isolated metrics
Who It’s For
- Individuals looking for traditional black seed oil
- Those who prioritise full-spectrum products
- Users seeking minimally processed oils
Alternative option
This oil sits within a small range of cold-pressed oils, each with a distinct composition and flavour profile.
Black Seed Oil
• Strong, bitter, and distinctive taste
• Traditionally used as part of daily routines
• Contains naturally occurring compounds such as thymoquinone
Siberian Pine Nut Oil
• Potent, rich, nutty, and distinctive flavour
• Naturally contains a range of fatty acids
• Often used as a food oil or daily addition
Choosing between them
Black seed oil is often chosen for its traditional use and established place in daily routines.
Pine nut oil offers a different profile, with a richer, nut-based composition and a more food-oriented use.
Siberian pine nut oil is available, offering a different composition and flavour profile.
How to Use
- Take a small serving daily (as directed)
- Can be taken directly or added to food
- Shake before use to redistribute sediment
- Use consistently as part of a routine

Product details
Ingredients
100% pure unfiltered and unrefined cold pressed oil from Nigella sativa seeds (Egypt). Contains no additives or preservatives.
Note: The oil is completely unadulterated, and in its natural state - nothing has been added to increase volatile oil content. As verified by 3rd party lab testing, naturally occurring compound levels are native to the essential oil of nigella sativa seeds associated with premium quality.
Directions
Take 1 teaspoon daily with food, or as directed by a healthcare professional. Black Seed Oil can be taken straight from the spoon, mixed with honey, stirred into yoghurt, added to smoothies, or drizzled over cold foods.
Do not heat or cook with this oil. For best quality, use cold and store away from direct sunlight.
Safety Information
Food supplement. Do not exceed the recommended daily intake. Keep out of reach of young children. Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
Not intended for use by children. If pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or under medical supervision, consult a healthcare professional before use. Use caution if taking medication for blood pressure, blood sugar, blood thinning, or immune suppression.
FAQs
What is black seed oil?
Black seed oil is derived from Nigella sativa seeds using pressing methods that extract the oil fraction.
Why is this oil unfiltered?
Unfiltered oil retains seed sediment, which contains additional naturally occurring compounds.
What is thymoquinone?
Thymoquinone is one of the naturally occurring compounds found within the essential oil fraction of Nigella sativa.
Why does the oil contain sediment?
The sediment is intentionally included to preserve a broader range of compounds from the original seed.
How is this different from CO₂ extracted oil?
CO₂ extraction isolates specific compounds, whereas cold pressing retains the full composition of the seed.
How does liquid black seed oil compare to capsules or softgels?
Liquid black seed oil, softgels, and capsules are different formats. Liquid oil provides the oil in its natural form, including both fatty acids and volatile compounds. Softgels contain the oil in a convenient, pre-measured format, while capsules typically contain powdered forms of the seed rather than the oil itself.
This product is designed around a full-spectrum liquid format rather than convenience.
What does “high strength” thymoquinone mean?
Thymoquinone is one of the key compounds found within the essential oil fraction of Nigella sativa. While some products focus on maximising this compound, black seed oil naturally contains a range of components that work together. This product is built around preserving that broader composition rather than isolating or exaggerating a single metric.
Can it be used daily?
Yes, it is designed for regular use within a balanced diet and lifestyle.
How should it be stored?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Where is this product shipped from?
This product is supplied from within the UK, with stock held domestically for reliable delivery.
