Pink Obi Kola | Obi Abata | FREE SHIPPING USA

Obi Kola (Pink Kola) is imported from Oyo State, Nigeria.

Fresh Pink Obi Kola is traditionally used in Yoruba and Ifá spiritual practices for prayer, offerings, ceremonies, and divination.

Use the selected variant to determine whether the Obi Kola is currently in stock or available as a preorder. I removed the link to the separate preorder product since both options will now be offered on this listing.

Free standard U.S. shipping is included unless otherwise stated.

In-Stock and Preorder Options
Please check the selected product option carefully before ordering. Each option is labeled either IN STOCK or PREORDER.

IN STOCK: The selected quantity is currently available and generally takes 1–7 business days to process before shipping.

PREORDER: The selected quantity will be reserved from an upcoming shipment. It is not currently ready to ship. Preorders may take 1–6 weeks or longer due to sourcing, supplier preparation, international transportation, customs clearance, and agricultural inspections.

Important: In-stock and preorder products purchased in the same order may be held until all preorder products are available. Place separate orders if you want your in-stock products shipped immediately.

Shipment dates are estimates and may change due to supplier availability, international transportation, customs clearance, agricultural inspections, or other circumstances outside our control.

Lobe Selection
Pink Obi Kola naturally forms with different numbers of lobes. Depending on availability, we may offer:

- Two-lobe obi

- Three-lobe obi

- Four-lobe obi

- Five-lobe obi

- Four- and five-lobe assortments

- Mixed-lobe obi

Availability varies by shipment and season. Each order is individually sorted and packaged by hand, with careful attention given to the selected lobe type.

While we make every effort to provide untaped obi matching your selection, a small number of taped obi or obi with a different lobe count may occasionally be included.

Quantity Estimates
Orders are filled by weight, not by an exact piece count.

- Half pound: Approximately 14–16 whole obi

- 1 pound: Approximately 28–33 whole obi

- 2 pounds: Approximately 56–66 whole obi

- 5 pounds: Approximately 140–165 whole obi

- 10 pounds: Approximately 280–330 whole obi

- 20 pounds: Approximately 560–660 whole obi

- 220 pounds: 100 kilograms

We may include additional pieces when available. Because obi naturally varies in size and weight, all piece counts are estimates and are not guaranteed.

The 100-kilogram option is a wholesale special-order preorder. It is not kept in stock and may be delivered in multiple separate packages.

What Is Obi Kola?
Obi Kola nuts are traditionally used throughout West Africa for social, spiritual, and ceremonial purposes.

Three-lobe obi: Often offered to Esu and Ogun.

Four-lobe obi: Often offered to Orunmila and other Orisas, depending on the practitioner’s tradition and lobe-selection rituals.

Five-lobe obi: May be adapted for practices requiring four lobes by removing the additional male or female lobe so that two male and two female lobes remain.

Practices, offerings, and interpretations may vary by lineage and practitioner.

Obi Kola comes from the kola tree, including Cola acuminata and Cola nitida. Kola trees can grow approximately 40–60 feet tall and produce fruit containing nuts with different lobe formations. Fresh kola is bitter but may mellow as it dries.

Common names include Obi, Obi Kola, Kola Nut, Obi Abata, Cola Vera, Divination Nut, and African Kola Nut.

Obi Season
Late spring through summer, April–August: Obi is typically smaller, with more pink obi available.

August–September: Obi may be larger and more mature.

September–April: Obi is scarcer and more difficult to source. Available supplies may be older or limited, and prices may increase.

Typical shipment periods may vary:

- Last shipment of the season: Late November through mid-December

- First shipment of the new season: Late January through mid-February

These timeframes are estimates and depend on agricultural availability, supplier preparation, international transportation, customs clearance, and agricultural inspections.

Shipping and Freshness
After an in-stock order or incoming preorder shipment becomes available, orders generally take 1–7 business days to inspect, prepare, and ship.

Domestic orders are normally sent using a 2–3-day shipping service whenever possible. This shipping estimate begins after order processing and does not include the preorder waiting period.

Some obi may be taped to help keep the lobes together because the lobes can naturally split as they mature or begin developing roots.

Obi may be wrapped in moist paper to help maintain freshness during shipping.

Not sold for planting or consumption.
