In a small village, an age-old tradition is being lovingly kept alive. This tradition takes us back to a time when every drop of oil was carefully extracted by hand, and every meal carried the pure essence of nature. Today, we invite you to experience that heritage with Rustic Bounty's Wood Cold-Pressed Sesame Oil—a product born from the heart of tradition and crafted for the health-conscious modern lifestyle.
A Journey to the Past: The Wooden Press
Imagine the rhythmic creak of a wooden press, its sturdy beams gently squeezing sesame seeds to release their golden nectar. This ancient technique, known as wood cold pressing, has been passed down through generations, preserving the essence of the sesame seed. Unlike modern extraction methods that rely on heat and chemicals, wood cold pressing works slowly, using low temperatures and natural pressure. This ensures that every drop of oil remains packed with nutrients, flavor, and aroma-just as nature intended.
At Rustic Bounty, our sesame oil is produced using these traditional wooden presses. It’s slow and laborious, but the result is pure, unrefined oil-free from additives, free from heat damage, and brimming with goodness.
The Queen of Oils: A Rich Legacy
Sesame oil has long been hailed as the "Queen of Oils," revered in kitchens and medicine cabinets across the world. From ancient Indian Ayurvedic practices to Middle Eastern cuisine, sesame oil’s versatility and benefits are legendary. But what makes it so special?
It’s all in the seed. Sesame oil is rich in antioxidants like sesamol and sesamin, which give it a long shelf life and provide a host of health benefits. It’s packed with vitamins E and B, essential minerals like calcium and magnesium, and heart-healthy polyunsaturated fats. But more than that, it’s an oil with soul—a deep connection to both the earth and the body.

When you open a bottle of Rustic Bounty's wood cold-pressed sesame oil, you’re not just opening any oil—you’re unlocking a story. A story that begins with a commitment to say “No” to harmful chemicals and high heat. The ancient wood pressing process may take longer than modern industrial methods, but it’s worth the wait. This gentle approach ensures the oil is rich in natural nutrients and vibrant in flavor.
