Food Oscar "GREAT TASTE AWARDS 2018" awarded 2 stars★★
Evaluated for its high quality and deliciousness, since its launch in March 2013, it has been handled at over 3,000 department stores and supermarkets in Japan. In 2018, among coconut oils gathered worldwide at the "GREAT TASTE AWARDS" organized by the UK Fine Food Retailers Association, also called the "Food Oscar," it was the only coconut oil to receive a Silver Award, 2 stars. Not only is the quality highly praised, but the flavor, which is the most important criterion in the judging, was highly evaluated, and it was recognized worldwide as "delicious coconut oil."
There is a reason why it tastes good
Fresh coconuts are immediately transported to the factory, squeezed raw, and centrifuged to extract the oil from fresh coconut milk. No chemical refining is performed.
Uses coconuts that are fully matured, about 10 months old.
Characterized by a gentle coconut aroma, and many customers have given high praise, saying, "I've tried various, but in the end, BROWN SUGAR 1ST.'s coconut oil is the most delicious!"
Medium-chain fatty acids (Natural MCT Oil <61% contained>)
Compared to medium-chain fatty acids such as those in beef fat, the medium-chain fatty acids contained in coconut oil are transported directly to the liver for metabolism, and are absorbed four times faster than long-chain fatty acids, and become energy ten times faster. This is a feature appreciated by gym trainers and athletes.
This product contains over 60% medium-chain fatty acids. It is also widely used by people on a carbohydrate-restricted diet. Among natural vegetable oils, coconut oil contains the highest amount of medium-chain fatty acids. Please add it to your daily drinks and help support a ketogenic lifestyle.
Contains 47% lauric acid, which is currently attracting attention
Coconut oil's medium-chain fatty acids include lauric acid. When ingested, lauric acid combines with glycerin and converts into monolaurin. Monolaurin has a similar structure to components that make up microbial membranes, so it attaches to microbes, destroys their membranes, and kills them. Lauric acid is also found in human breast milk, which protects infants from harmful bacteria. It kills harmful microbes but is harmless to humans. Therefore, coconut oil can be safely consumed by children.

Features and ways to eat coconut oil you want to eat every day
【Beginner】Excellent compatibility with coffee and bread!
BROWN SUGAR 1ST.'s coconut oil is especially great with coffee and bread! If you're interested in coconut oil but haven't tried it yet, start by spreading it on your breakfast toast. Adding honey or cinnamon makes a honey coconut toast. Add it to coffee, tea, or other drinks, and enjoy the natural deliciousness of fresh coconut oil as part of your healthy daily routine.
【Intermediate】Ideal for heated cooking!
Healthy oils should also consider heating temperature. While chemically refined MCT oil deteriorates when heated, natural coconut oil, which contains 61% saturated fatty acids, can be heated up to 190°C (the highest temperature for plant-based oils). It is less prone to deterioration from heat than unsaturated fats like flaxseed or perilla oils, making it a recommended oil.
<For cooking>
Recommended to use when sautéing onions. It brings out the sweet aroma of onions. It’s convenient to remember "Coconut oil for sautéed onions" for dishes like hamburgers, curry, and meat and potatoes.
<For baking>
Our coconut oil is made with a proprietary method that does not involve heating and removes moisture to the limit, resulting in a gentle, soft coconut aroma. Therefore, replacing 1/3 to 1/2 of butter with coconut oil in baking, such as muffins or pound cakes, makes them delicious. It is recommended to try baking with coconut oil instead of butter. It has richness similar to butter but leaves a clean aftertaste without stickiness. Many delicious coconut oil-based dessert recipes are available on Cookpad! ⇒ Click here for recipe search!

【Storage instructions】
Close the lid tightly, keep the container upright, and store away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, and humidity. It can be stored at room temperature or refrigerated. If you want to enjoy it in a solid state, refrigerate it. If you prefer it liquid, keep it at room temperature or warm the bottle in hot water around 40°C. It begins to melt above 25°C, so there is no need to prepare boiling water. During winter, if the oil solidifies and is hard to scoop with a spoon, it is recommended to warm the bottle in a water bath until liquid, then pour into an ice tray, freeze into blocks, and store in a plastic bag. This makes it convenient for single-use portions. In summer, it will be liquid, so using an oil container is recommended.
【Precautions for use】
If coconut oil is liquefied, opening the bottle vigorously may cause oil to spill. Although coconut oil is resistant to oxidation, please be careful to prevent water and bacteria from mixing. Use a dry, hygienic spoon or butter knife.
