Description
At Rosita Real Foods they are dedicated to providing quality handcrafted products that have been produced in harmony with nature. Their oils are a sustainable and natural source of pure fatty nutrients that boost your health and consciousness.
Rosita Real Foods provides pure, natural and premium Extra-Virgin oils. Rosita do not use any heat, pressure or metal containers or treatment in the Rosita Method, and this is very important. These oils are very delicate and must not be heated, extracted through pressure or exposed to air or metal in the process.
The fish and extraction process receive special treatment, with each liver inspected and only the best chosen and placed in a dark, oxygen-free environment. The oil is naturally released when the cod livers are exposed to temperatures slightly higher than the ocean. Great care is taken to monitor this process to ensure the oils retain their freshness and purity.
