Actually, tea oil and camellia oil are the same thing and there is no difference between them. They are both pure, natural, high-grade edible vegetable oils extracted from the mature seeds of the common oil tea (Camellia oleifera Abel), a plant in the Camellia family. In the extraction process, this vegetable oil is used to refer to the oil extracted from the oleifera fruit produced by the Camellia oleifera tree.

The following provides you with detailed information about tea oil/camellia oil:

1. Name and Origin of Camellia Oil: Camellia oil is obtained from the Camellia oleifera tree, also known as camellia sinensis and camellia sinensis. This tree usually grows to a height of 3-6 meters and its seeds can be extracted for use as an edible oil. Since its use is only to produce oleaginous fruits for oil extraction, the young leaves of the camellia tree cannot be used to make tea.

2. Fruit of Camellia oil: The fruit of Camellia oleifera is a capsule, subglobose, as big as a goose egg, with thick and woody petals containing 2-4 triangular black tea-brown seeds with a shiny shell.

3. The oil content of camellia oil: the oil content of camellia seeds is generally 30% -40%, the oil yield is generally up to 23% -25%. Its production methods are mainly pressing and leaching.

4. Nutritional composition of camellia oil: Camellia oil is rich in tea polyphenols, amino acids and other nutrients.

In short, whether they are called tea oil or camellia oil, they are both edible vegetable oils extracted from the common oil tea of the Camellia sinensis plant of the family Camelliaceae.
