We produce real, living oil that retains all the natural vitamins and valuable substances that nature has stored in seeds and nuts.
Oilika is a story of family, tradition and real oil, created by nature. We are a small family business based in the picturesque South-Estonian town of Räpina. It is here, in the middle of fields and forests, that we produce unique cold-pressed oils - alive, pure and full of the power of seeds and nuts.
Our oil is real. It's not just a figure of speech: we don't heat seeds or nuts, we don't heat the oil, our oil doesn't heat up during pressing. The oil stays alive, retaining all its natural minerals, vitamins and beneficial properties. This is why there are no analogues for our oils in the Baltic States or Scandinavia.
How did we get there? Sometimes random events can change lives. That's what happened to us.
The first turning point: we saw a TV programme about olive oil being one of the most counterfeited products in the world. But we consume it every day!
Another turning point: while travelling in Latvia, we came across a tourist farm where we were able to taste hand-pressed flaxseed and hempseed oil, freshly
pressed in front of us. We were deeply impressed by its taste, purity and richness.
These two events merged and gave rise to the idea: why not try to press the oil yourself?
We started looking for the necessary equipment. It took a while, but eventually we found the right one. We moved it in and installed our first press. The first thing we pressed was linseed oil. Then we pressed the canola oil. We got a fresh, aromatic oil, full of all the goodness - just the way nature intended. Without the overheating, long storage times and chemical solvents of refined oils.
Our family and friends sampled our oil. Then their acquaintances. Then their acquaintances. More and more orders started coming in. Then we realised: it's not just a hobby. It's a vocation.
Today, Oilika 100% is a family business where every family member has a role to play. We squeeze the oil ourselves, choose the suppliers, order the packaging, send the orders out, develop the concept and refine our product. We argue, we make mistakes, we learn from our mistakes, but we always support each other because we are a family.
Our aim is to introduce people to real cold-pressed oils of the highest
quality. Oils that, thanks to a careful production process, retain all the beneficial properties that nature has put into seeds and nuts.
We have 18 presses and produce 12 different types of oil. But we don't compromise: we press the oil
every time after we receive your order to ensure maximum freshness.
Today Oilika is not just an oil producer. It's a philosophy of healthy living, of taking care of yourself and your loved ones. It's a love of nature and a desire to keep its gifts in every drop.
Experience the care and freshness of our oil - and let it bring joy and health into your life!
