is this oil cold-pressed?

All cold pressed oils are expeller pressed, but all expeller pressed oils are not cold pressed. If it doesn't claim to be cold pressed, it isn't.

It does not say it is. The label says "expeller pressed in a manner similar to extra virgin olive oil."

Not sure; probably not. Here's what is says on the label: "La Touangelle Avodado Oil is 100% pure, all-natural and handcrafted from fresh premium avocados. The avocado pulp is first expeller-pressed in a manner similar to extra virgin olive oil, then lightly filtered. The result is a beautiful, emerald green oil with high level of monounsaturated fats that will bring a delicious, light avocado flavor to your dishes.

no expeller pressed is not cold pressed. expeller pressed is when raw material is pressed and friction causes it to heat up to extract the oils. Depending on the source, depends on how high the heat goes up.

although it doesn't say so, it does say "expeller pressed like extra virgin olive oil".

Yes, It's ultrasonic so the oils aren't heated. I believe there is more information in the description about how it works exactly.

Yes, the label indicates that it is cold pressed, hexane-free. The ingredients are pure, cold pressed organic ricinus communis (castor) oil.

It probably got cold during shipping. Warm it up under hot tap water and see if it clears up. Jojoba oil solidifies at cold temperatures. Throw it in the fridge and you'll see what i mean.

Theres nothing on the bottle'S label, that mentions cold press/ processed. So its not.

The cumin seed oil you speak of may be chemically extracted and not refined - that is probably the difference. It should be "cold pressed" to receive the natural benefits of this seed oil. You don't want it to contain synthetic preservatives or unnatural additives for best results.

The label doesn't say if it's cold pressed or not, but it does read 100% pure. I used to use Josie Maran's Argan Oil, but just couldn't afford it any more. I've found this company's argan oil to be top quality, feel the full benefits to my skin (face & body) as well as my hair, and I'm spending a whole lot less for it!

Yes...BUT... Like all unprocessed oils cold preserves the integrity of the omega 3 content (I keep mine in the freezer for maximum preservation because it stays liquid), however, unlike most perishables it does not need continuous cold to prevent spoiling. This is why it can be shipped in a normal box. As long as it is kept cold most of the time and especially after it is opened it will be fine (same goes for flax oil). If it gets warm after opening it needs to be used up pretty quick or it will start to go bad. I recommend alternating between hemp and flax for maximum omega fatty acid nutrition.

As the listing States: "Cold pressed; Extra virgin;" Easily dissecting the words would give you the answer actually. Cannot get Extra virgin or cold-pressed from copra or dried anything....including dried coconuts. From: http://vegetarian.about.com/od/rawfoodsrecipes/a/cold-pressed-oil.htm "Cold-pressed oils are oils made by first grinding nuts, seeds, fruits or vegetables (depending on the oil being made) into a paste. Then an oil stone or other tool is used to press the paste which forces the oil to separate out. Many labels use the term cold-pressed, but they aren't all considered raw and suitable for a truly 100% raw food diet. To be raw, the oil cannot be heated above 115F. Some manufacturers will heat up the paste in order to extract more oil. This alters not only the nutritional value of the food, but also the color and flavor. The only way to know for sure if an oil is truly raw is to contact the manufacturer directly. You can also do some on-line research to find companies with strict raw regulations and effective investigative practices. Essential Living Foods is one trusted source and a Greek company called Eliki Olive Oil produces an authentic raw oil." Extra virgin: From: Google Search adjective adjective: extra virgin 1. denoting a particularly fine grade of olive oil made from the first pressing of the olives and containing a maximum of one percent oleic acid.

This is oil pressed from the carrot flesh, not the seed... and although I can't be certain, I believe it is undiluted since when I look at other oils from this company, for example, the rose oil... it says that it is infused in almond oil. I imagine the carrot oil would state something similar if it were anything other than the pure cold pressed oil from the carrot.

I could not tell if it was cold processed or not. Based on the lower quality of the oil, I do not think it was organic. Definitely not what I would consider high or therapeutic quality. This is my opinion only.

Nowhere on this bottle does it state this oil is cold pressed or extra virgin. I don't know why others have replied with a 'yes'. It is also about 5 bucks a bottle at the actual store.

Any company that produces Argan oil knows to state if it is cold pressed and/or organic if, indeed, it is. Because they don't, I agree with the other comments. Also, it is in a plastic bottle. That is a big no-no (and a red flag) in the Argan oil world.

Yes, it is cold pressed. My skin absolutely drinks it in. Beats the $200 set of premier facial products I was using.

yes it has been refrigerated, but the oil has been used many months ago. I do remember that the pressing date was within a few days of delivery. Sorry i couldn't be of more help.
