What's in Our Tallow

Our tallow starts with a short list of ingredients, made in small batches in Lockhart, Texas. Tap any ingredient to see what it is and why it's there.

The Base

Most of our tallow is built on the same base: suet tallow, jojoba oil, camellia oil, squalane, and ceramide NP. Vanilla Honey is simpler: suet tallow, camellia oil, and local raw honey. Orange is made without squalane and ceramide NP: suet tallow, jojoba oil, and camellia oil.

Suet tallow

Suet is the fat from around the kidneys and loin of the cow. It makes a firm, bright white tallow with a clean, neutral scent, which is why it's the only fat we use. We source it locally, with no hormones or antibiotics, and it's never bleached or chemically treated.
