Our comprehensive range of native hinu (oils) are handcrafted with tikanga and aroha - from harvesting through to packaging, each rākau is processed with meticulous attention and respect.  Our hinu contains the leaves, flowers, roots, bark and /or buds of the rākau, slow infused in cold pressed sunflower oil.

We’ve put together a gorgeous selection of 4 dark green healing oils made from some of our local native rākau.   Infused over the summer and autumn months, these oils are ready for you to use for mirimiri, or add 1gm of beeswax to 10ml of oil and make your own healing balms.  Blend the oils together to layer the benefits of each rākau into your rongoā.  

Individually these oils would cost $120 - this boxed set is great value at $90, saving you $30.
