Ditto on that. I have tried others. Melrose is the only one that smells and tastes like proper coconut oil. I get mine from a health food store in the local market.

Yea i been buying mine at a health food store for $20 a liter, this stuff looks very competitively priced i might have to give it a go, but one turn off is i see it comes as a solid though the one i get comes as a liquid like olive oil is this meant for cooking or cosmetics?

michael,its not solid mate,its liquid,but for some reason thats how they put it on the website,

When its cold it can solidify

I get mine from the health food shop, and have seen it at organic food shop. Can remember the name off the top of my head - but it's in a square jar with a hawaiian dancer on the front.

I get mine off this sites 'sister site' on ebay. Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil - Thyroid Relief - Coconut Oil Benefits - Wholesalers & Distributors of Fiji Virgin Coconut Oil . Specializing in pure Extra Virgin Coconut Oil and other natural remedies based on thousands of years of Pacific Island

I think its important to make sure its a virgin oil. Check out the site as it has some interesting reading on it.

Yea this is the one i use $20 for a L at the health food shop they are selling it for $19.50 on that site plus postage would end up spending more, would of though the health food shop would of jacked up the price more than that. Mino's one is definitely much better value but it isn't extra virgin or virgin not sure how much of a difference that makes. Maybe virgin stuff is for cooking eating non virgin is for cosmetics/skin anyone know anything about this?
