Pressed Only Once for Pure Sesame Flavor.

Organic sesame seeds grown in India are first germinated, then carefully washed and pressed only once. This single-press method preserves a clean, rich sesame flavor that lingers on the palate.

The sprouted sesame seeds are slowly roasted at low temperatures, preventing any burnt taste while also reducing concerns about the formation of benzopyrene, a compound that can be produced during high-temperature roasting.

Made from carefully selected ingredients that are gently roasted and then pressed, this Organic Sprouted Sesame Oil delivers a rich, nutty taste with a delicate, lingering aroma.

Certified Organic Sesame Oil

Sprouted for Better Nutrition

Our sesame seeds undergo Chung-O's proprietary sprouting process, where temperature and moisture are carefully controlled to encourage natural germination. 

Sprouting activates the seed's natural enzymes and helps unlock a broader range of nutrients.

Throughout germination, the seeds are thoroughly washed multiple times, resulting in exceptionally clean sesame seeds that require no additional washing before processing.

The result is a cleaner, richer sesame oil with a naturally nutty flavor, delicate aroma, and enhanced nutritional value.

Point 01: Carefully Selected, Gently Roasted

We carefully select certified organic sesame seeds and slowly roast them at low temperatures to bring out their naturally rich, nutty flavor and aroma. 

This gentle roasting method helps preserve the seeds' natural nutritional qualities while preventing the bitter, burnt taste often associated with high-temperature roasting. The result is a clean, aromatic sesame oil that's both flavorful and crafted with care.
