Shea Butter East African Nilotica - Virgin

East African Shea (Nilotica Shea) is hygienically Cold Pressed & produced in the same way as our West African Shea Butter. East African Shea Butter is very rare and accounts for 1% of all shea butter produced in the world. One of the qualities of this type of shea butter is its high olein content, which makes it much softer. Nilotica shea butter is considered a “luxury” product compared to Western shea butter. It is richer, creamier, & much more difficult to obtain. Many also say that East African Shea Butter contains a higher portion of Shea Butter's healing qualities due to its higher content of Vitamin E and other nutrients. A bucket wrench is recommended with the 20lb pail.  Add one to your cart here. Note: Natural butters and oils may melt during shipping or processing when exposed to high temperatures, and upon cooling they can sometimes re-solidify with a grainy texture or develop a thin white layer known as fat bloom (a harmless separation of fats such as stearic acid).
