Bale & Arsi highlands.
One farm cooperative in the Ethiopian highlands. Volcanic soil, cold nights, intense sun. The plant has to work harder to grow there — and that's the whole point.

How it's made
From a single farm cooperative in the Ethiopian highlands, to a card in your box. Every step, the proof artifacts, and the things we deliberately leave out.
The process
One farm cooperative in the Ethiopian highlands. Volcanic soil, cold nights, intense sun. The plant has to work harder to grow there — and that's the whole point.
Most farms harvest at day 60 — yield per acre is higher. We wait until day 75. The seed is fully matured; the active compounds have had time to build up.
Pressed slowly in California at under 60°C. Heat above that breaks down the parts of the seed that actually do something. Less oil per pound. The oil we get is intact.
Every batch tested by an outside lab. We name the method (HPLC-UV) so you know which number you're reading. Most brands hide that part.
Glass bottles, BPA-free cap, sealed the day the oil is pressed. Lot number and harvest date printed on the bottle itself — not a sticker that can fall off.
Every bottle ships with a printed card showing the actual numbers for that specific batch. Not a website link. Not a brand average. Your bottle.
The artifact
Filled in per batch. Traceable by lot. The card answers the question every label-reader has been quietly asking about everything in the cabinet.
Look up your batch
Every batch has its report on file. If a friend hands you a habb bottle and you want to see what's in it, the lot number on the bottle pulls it up.
Why this matters
The industry is allowed to pick its method, pick its moment to test, and pick what to print.
HPLC-UV · fixed oil
1.5 – 4.6%
Real Ethiopian cold-pressed black seed oil tests in this range. The number is what your body actually receives.
GC-MS · volatile fraction
22 – 35%
Same bottle. Different lab method. The number is real, but it doesn't reflect what you ingest.
Both tests are real. Both labs give you a certificate. Only one of them reflects what's in the oil you're about to swallow.
Just as important
Most supplements are made by adding things. habb is made by leaving things out.
Real reviews. No AI.
Five commitments. Hold us to them.
Reviews are tied to a real order and lot number. If you didn't buy the bottle, you can't review it.
No AI rewriting, summarizing, or padding. We don't run reviews through a model.
Creator, ambassador, gifted bottle — the FTC tag goes on the review itself.
If the oil isn't for you, that's information other buyers deserve. We respond in public.
If a habb product is mentioned, the product is in the catalog and you can buy it.
From the field to your counter
If you're ready
Three thousand years of tradition. Three thousand peer-reviewed papers. One card in the box.
