After visiting Fes and learning about the process of extracting argon oil and what it looks like after the process I discovered that my purchase of argon oil (MAD110) at the store in the Medina that Mou took us to is sunflower oil sadly. Other than that, we enjoyed the tour.
Response from Carlota , Ali, Imad & Mou
I have no commercial ties to any shops I recommend. My goal is to share local culture, including argan oil, without any personal benefit. I suggested the shop based on its reputation, not to mislead.
It’s unfortunate the cooperative in Fes called the oil fake. Some cooperatives may discredit others to make sales. To verify, you could test the oil or contact Chefchaouen Argan cooperative directly. We are happy to assist.
We hope this clears up any misunderstanding.
See you next time
Kind regards,
Mou
