About Hemp oil

Hemp oil is an edible oil pressed from hemp seeds. It is used in dressings, dips, and other preparations where its flavour can be appreciated; it is also sold as a bottled culinary oil. It is distinct from hemp seeds, hemp-seed paste, and oils from other parts of the plant.

The oil is typically greenish to golden and has a mild, nutty, sometimes grassy flavour. It may be sold unrefined or refined, and these forms can differ in colour, aroma, and suitable culinary use. The product name alone does not specify pressing or refining method.
