Choosing the perfect cooking oil

1. Start with rain-fed sugarcane plants.
   These grasses are sourced from South America where they grow abundantly up to 20-feet tall! As the highest yielding crop in the world, sugarcane enables us to produce cooking oil using 99% less water than olive oil and 87% less land than canola oil.

2. Convert sugar to oil through fermentation.
   Raw sugar from sugarcane ferments in tanks over a few days. The sugar is naturally broken down and converted into oil.

3. Purify & test for quality.
   Once fermentation is complete, the oil is pressed, purified and tested for freshness and quality.
