Argan oil (or argane) is drawn from the argan tree endigenous of Morocco and primarily present at the south-west of the country.
Of traditional and ancestral manufacture, the fruits are collected and sun-dried. The dried fruits are pulped and the cores crushed between two stones by the women of Berbères. The small almonds inside known as “green almonds” are then sorted.
These green almonds are mechanically crushed, then pressed. The oil collected is then elutriated, filtered and bottled. Though partially mechanized, this process remains extremely time consuming because the annual production of a tree is not sufficient for the 80 kgs of fruit required for 1 litre of oil.
The almonds reserved for the manufacture of oil or for cosmetics are not toasted, this process is solely for the edible oils to refine the flavours (a hint of hazelnut and almond)
