Kigelia africana - Sausage Tree

Kigelia (Kigelia africana) is the African sausage tree, famous for its enormous hanging fruit. Its fruit has a long history of external, traditional use on the skin across Africa. Our Kigelia Fruit tincture captures the dried fruit in a concentrated, alcohol-based liquid for external use.

About our Kigelia Fruit Tincture:

We start with quality, dried Kigelia fruit and use a classic, conventional alcohol extraction with organic alcohol, vegetable glycerin, and water. It is a whole-fruit extract - not an isolate - carrying the plant's natural profile. This is specifically Kigelia africana, the sausage tree, prepared for topical use. Because it is alcohol-based, it may feel drying on the skin.

Suggested use: For external use. Do a patch test first: apply a small amount to a small area of skin and wait 24 hours. If there is no irritation, apply a small amount to clean skin as desired. Avoid the eyes, lips, and broken or irritated skin. Do not swallow.*

Frequently Asked Questions about Kigelia Extract
What is Kigelia Fruit (Kigelia africana) extract?
Kigelia fruit extract is a topical botanical extract for external use, made from the dried fruit of Kigelia africana, an African tree of the family Bignoniaceae widely known as the sausage tree because of its large, grey, sausage-shaped fruit. It is prepared for use on the skin and is not intended to be taken internally. Our extract is made specifically from the fruit and is offered in two forms: a traditional alcohol-based tincture and an alcohol-free glycerite, each prepared from ethically sourced, carefully dried raw material. This is a whole-fruit liquid extract that carries the fruit's natural spectrum of constituents - it is not an isolated or standardized single-compound product. We label the product by its botanical name and plant part so it is clear this is Kigelia africana fruit, distinct from the ornamental tree and from cosmetic kigelia products.
What is the difference between the tincture and alcohol-free versions?
Both are liquid extracts of the same Kigelia africana fruit; only the solvent differs. The tincture uses a traditional blend of vegetable glycerine, alcohol and water. The alcohol-free version is a glycerite made with vegetable glycerin and crystal-clear water, which suits those who prefer to avoid alcohol. Choose the tincture if you prefer a classic alcohol-extracted format with a longer shelf life; choose the glycerite if you prefer no alcohol.
Is this the sausage tree, cucumber tree, or a skincare product?
Our product is a topical fruit extract for external use, made from the sausage tree. Kigelia africana is the sausage tree, named for its enormous hanging fruit; while the tree itself is grown as an ornamental curiosity, our product is made from the dried FRUIT and prepared for external use on the skin, not the living tree. It is sometimes also called the cucumber tree, but note that "cucumber tree" is a name shared with unrelated plants such as Magnolia acuminata and Averrhoa bilimbi, so we identify our product by its botanical name to avoid confusion. Kigelia fruit has a long tradition of being applied to the skin; our extract is a topical botanical for external use and is not intended to be taken internally. We label the product clearly by its botanical name and plant part so there is no confusion between the kigelia fruit skin extract, the ornamental tree, and other cucumber trees.
How do I use Kigelia Fruit liquid extract?
For external use. Shake well before use. Do a patch test first: apply a small amount to a small area of skin and wait 24 hours. If there is no irritation, apply a small amount to clean skin as desired. Avoid the eyes, lips, and broken or irritated skin. Do not swallow. Please read the safety note below before use.
Is Kigelia Fruit extract right for everyone? Safety and storage.
This product is for external use only and should not be taken internally or swallowed - the raw sausage-tree fruit is not eaten, as it is traditionally regarded as a strong purgative. Before first use, do a patch test: apply a small amount to a small area of skin and wait 24 hours, and stop use if any redness, irritation, or rash occurs. Avoid contact with the eyes, lips, and broken or irritated skin. Do not use during pregnancy or while nursing without the advice of a qualified practitioner. If you use any topical or prescription medication or have a skin condition, consult your doctor before use. Keep out of reach of children. Store this tincture in a cool, dark place. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

ETHICALLY SOURCED, NATURAL INGREDIENTS
Our Kigelia (Kigelia Africana) Fruit is selected from regions with optimal growing conditions to support a high concentration of active constituents. We work only with trusted suppliers and focus on sourcing clean, well-preserved botanical material suitable for high-quality liquid extraction.

As a solvent, we use alcohol to preserve the integrity of the extract and support a clean extraction process.
To verify botanical identity and ensure consistency, all raw materials are tested in our laboratory using established analytical techniques. These include High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) for plant authentication and fingerprinting, or Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and other in-house methods. Our approach is guided by relevant standards such as those of the USP and Ph. Eur., ISO 17025 and cGLP, allowing us to maintain rigorous quality control, ensuring the material meets our specifications for identity, purity and composition.
METICULOUS EXTRACT PREPARATION
Hawaii Pharm determines the optimal herb-to-menstruum ratio for each botanical. For alcohol-based extracts, we use a carefully balanced alcohol blend to ensure maximum extraction of active compounds while preserving the plant's natural integrity.
Our master herbalists analyze each batch and adjust extraction parameters as needed, ensuring consistent quality despite natural variations in botanical sources.
The result is a potent, stable liquid extract that captures the full spectrum of the botanical's benefits.
COMPREHENSIVE LABORATORY TESTING
Every batch undergoes multiple quality assurance tests including:
  • Organoleptic evaluation (color, consistency, aroma)
  • FTIR and/or HPTLC spectral analysis for identity confirmation
  • Microbiological testing (total plate count, E. coli, coliforms)
  • Yeast and mold screening
  • Alcohol content verification
  • Viscosity measurement
  • Refractometric analysis
