Kalaunji Oil (Black Seed Oil) is a pure, cold-pressed oil extracted from the tiny seeds of the Nigella sativa plant — traditionally known as “the seed of blessing” in ancient Unani and Ayurvedic medicine.

It possesses a distinct, warm, spicy aroma and a slightly peppery, bitter flavor, reflecting its high potency.
