They describe the same low-temperature process using different words. Kachi ghani is the Hindi term, cold pressed is the English one, and wood pressed names the wooden kolhu doing the work. SatRas presses in a wooden kolhu at low temperature in its own mill, so all three terms apply.

Black is the pungent one, built for tadka, pickles and deep frying. Yellow is milder and suits first-time mustard oil users and families. High oleic comes from the Raya Hisar 1706 seed SatRas grows in Hisar and is made for regular high-heat cooking. All three are unrefined.

In glass and tin only, never plastic. SatRas states it has removed plastic pipelines from its own factory as well, so the oil does not contact plastic between the press and the bottle. Tin also keeps light out, which matters for an unrefined oil with no added preservatives.

Check the best before date printed on your tin, and store it somewhere cool and dark. Unrefined oil carries no added preservatives, so it behaves differently from refined oil on a shelf. Buy the pack size your household will finish inside that window rather than the largest one available.
