What is aceite de batana?

Aceite de batana is Batana Oil. Plain and simple. It is Batana Oil in spanish and how locals refer to Batana Oil in Honduras. 

Some people refer to batana oil as "aceite de batana" because it’s simply the Spanish term for the oil. "Aceite" means "oil" in Spanish, and since batana oil originates from regions like Honduras, where Spanish is the primary language, this is the term locals use. For those in Spanish-speaking communities or those who want to honor the cultural roots of the oil, "aceite de batana" feels authentic and connected to its origin.

The use of the Spanish term can also reflect the heritage of the product and the traditional practices of the Miskito people who extract and use it. Calling it "aceite de batana" often underscores the authenticity of the product and reminds buyers of its Central American roots, differentiating it from synthetic or mass-produced alternatives.
