Rich, buttery character. Earthy depth.

Few fruits capture natural richness quite like the avocado. Beneath its textured skin lies a creamy fruit celebrated for its distinctive flavour.

Our Extra Virgin Avocado Oil is pressed from ripe South African Hass avocados, using the green flesh rather than the seed. It has a smooth, buttery texture, subtly earthy and nutty notes, and a beautifully rounded finish. Unlike refined avocado oil, it retains more of the fruit’s natural character.

From summer salads and grilled fish to roasted vegetables and everyday cooking, this oil brings both flavour and versatility.

Customer photo review of 5L Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Avocado Oil

I've switched from using Olive Oil to Avo Oil for health reasons and am looking forward to reaping the rewards henceforth. Wish me luck

African Oils Avocado Oil 5L is the best and the main ingredient used in my homemade crispy chilli jars. 🌶️❤️🥑 the avocado oil is subtle enough but tasty.

Customer photo review of 5L Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Avocado Oil

Avocado oil has become my go-to cooking oil. I use it regularly for frying, and it handles high heat extremely well without smoking or affecting the taste of the food. I also use it in salad sauces and dressings, where the mild, smooth flavour doesn’t overpower fresh ingredients and blends beautifully into sauces. Because of its quality and versatility, I’m now preserving snacking peppers in avocado oil as well, which says a lot about how confident I am in using it. Overall, it’s a high-quality, versatile oil that works perfectly for both cooking and cold use. Highly recommended.

Customer photo review of 5L Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Avocado Oil

Absolutely love the product, but it got damaged in transit.... Maybe add more package fillingand add an right side up and fragile sticker to the box. Ours didn't have that. It got badly smashed and leaked a bit, but the oil is lovely

5L Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Avocado Oil

Always buy your 5L Karoo Gold Olive Oil, great value for money & love it. Trying the 5L Avo Oil as a complete substitute. So far enjoying it, using it on salads, food, by the spoonful, as l had used OO. Thanks

5L Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Avocado Oil

Good day, I am really dissatisfied with my avo oil I bought from you. We make mayonaise with it, but the avo flavour is overwhelming and has a lot of sediment at the bottom. It is very bitter too. Avo oil bought from other shops does not taste this strong, we really can't consume this. Really really disappointed and a LOT of money wasted.

5L Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Avocado Oil

The smell is very strong and unpleasant. Leaves the food, fried eggs and popcorn with such a bad taste. Not sure if the oil is off or what the issue is but i have tried contacting you several times and the call never gets connected.

5L Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Avocado Oil

Excellent service order was delivered on time and taste is delicious! Will definitely make use of you in future again! Highly appriciated, Lenie

5L Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Avocado Oil

Great quality & value. Tip: if moving from sunflower oil, you'll have to increase the temperature at which your fry to get crispy chips, else the chips will soak too much oil, but still delicious even when this happens!

5L Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Avocado Oil

I have never tried Avocado oil before, but I've always wanted to. This product did not disappoint. The flavour is subtle avocado and not overpowering, making it ideal for salads and cooking. I made mayonnaise with this oil and it is one of the best tasting home made mayonnaise I've ever made.

5L Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Avocado Oil

Iv now tried the avocado oil, macadamia oil and olive oil and am impressed with all 3’s quality and service delivery. Il be ordering again for sure God willing.
