Why should I buy from you?
Grown by Us or Locally Sourced
We cultivate gingelly on our own farms and source from farmers nearby in the Tirupur - Coimbatore - Pollachi region. You know where your oil comes from.
Traditional Cold Pressed Extraction
The wooden pestle rotates at just 8 rotations per minute to slowly crush and extract the oil at room temperature with very minimal heat. This helps the oil retain most of its nutrients intact and is very healthy.
Natural Oil Aroma
Since the oil is extracted at room temperature (30–36°C) using the traditional wood cold pressed method, it has a natural nutty aroma which is subtle. This is the real smell of pure gingelly Oil — not the sharp smell caused by heat pressing.
Slightly Thicker Texture
The extracted oil is slightly thicker as it has retained most of its nutrients and natural goodness. Thin and watery oil has been stripped of these compounds through industrial processing.
Light on the Stomach
Light and easy to digest, and good for health. Other refined oils generally feel heavy after consumption. Our cold pressed gingelly oil sits comfortably — even when used for frying.
Zero Chemicals — 100% Pure
100% pure gingelly oil. No chemicals are added at any stage — no solvents for extraction, no bleaching, no deodorising, no preservatives. What you receive is exactly what came out of the press.
VANAKKAM 🙏
🌾 We are farmers from the Tirupur–Coimbatore–Pollachi region. Every ingredient is either grown on our farm or sourced from farmers we know by name, in the same land we grew up in.
🏪 Most oils today are extracted at high heat and speed. The nutrients are gone before the bottle even reaches your kitchen.
❌ We couldn't accept that.
👵🏻 In our grandmothers' kitchens, oil was pressed using a Marachekku — a traditional wooden pestle — slowly, at room temperature. Nothing lost. Nothing added. Nothing to hide.
✨ We looked at what the industry had become, and decided to go back to what worked. That's why we started Grandma Pure.
🌀 The oil is extracted at room temperature — our wooden pestle (Marachekku / Kachi Ghani) rotates at just 8 rotations per minute. Slow enough to preserve what the seed holds. Slow enough that nothing burns. Slow enough to do it right.
🧪 No chemicals. No shortcuts. Just oil the way it used to be — nutritious, naturally aromatic.
📦 Pressed in small batches. Delivered fresh to you.
3 simple ways to verify purity at home
You don't need a lab. Open the bottle — the oil will tell you.
The aroma is deep and nutty
Pure cold pressed gingelly oil smells naturally of sesame. It should be aromatic without smelling burnt or chemical.
The oil feels fuller
Cold pressed sesame oil keeps its natural lignans and body intact. A fuller pour is a good sign.
Colour varies naturally
Single-origin sesame oil can be a little lighter or darker from batch to batch. A perfectly uniform pale colour usually points to refining.
Natural aroma, fuller texture, and honest colour variation are the easiest home checks for pure cold pressed gingelly oil.
GrandmaPure vs refined gingelly oil
Why gingelly oil is good for you — when it's done right
Gingelly oil has been a staple in South Indian kitchens and Ayurvedic rituals for generations. Cold-pressed, it keeps the natural sesame character that refining removes.
Sesame lignans, preserved
Cold pressing keeps sesamin and sesamolin intact — naturally occurring antioxidants destroyed by heat.
Heart-friendly fats
Naturally rich in mono- and polyunsaturated fats. Light on the gut, heavy on flavour.
Built for Indian heat
Stable at tempering and shallow-fry temperatures. The original tadka oil.
Abhyanga ready
The Ayurvedic massage oil. Warm slightly and use across the body before bath.
Deep, aromatic gingelly oil for tadka, pongal, idli podi, shallow frying, abhyanga, and oil pulling.
