What is Laurel Berry Oil?
Laurel Berry Oil — also known as bay laurel berry oil — is a premium specialty oil extracted from the fruit of the Laurus nobilis tree. As a leading Turkish laurel berry oil supplier, we produce this oil in Hatay, Turkey, where the finest laurel berries grow. It has been treasured for centuries as the signature ingredient in traditional Aleppo soap and is highly valued as a laurel berry oil for cosmetics and skincare formulations.
Unlike Laurel Leaf Essential Oil (steam-distilled from leaves), laurel berry oil from Turkey is produced through a time-honored water-extraction process. Hand-harvested berries are boiled until seeds and pulp separate, allowing the nutrient-rich oil to float to the surface.
Not Cold Pressed - Traditional Water Extraction
Authentic laurel berry oil is NOT cold pressed. It requires a traditional water-extraction method used for centuries:
- Hand Harvesting: Mature laurus nobilis berries picked November-January at peak oil content
- Traditional Boiling: Berries boiled in large cauldrons, separating seeds from oil
- Natural Separation: Oil floats to surface, carefully skimmed by hand
- Settling & Filtration: Natural settling for weeks, then filtered
This method preserves high levels of unsaponifiable matter (5-8%), giving Aleppo soap its distinctive creamy lather and gentle cleansing properties.
