Black Turmeric Root(Curcuma caesia) - Kali Haldi
Black Turmeric (Curcuma caesia) is a rare relative of common turmeric with a distinct bluish-black rhizome and a camphor-like aroma. Unlike yellow turmeric, its essential oils are rich in compounds like camphor, ar-turmerone, and other bioactives that give it potent antioxidant and antimicrobial properties shown in lab studies. Research also supports traditional uses for anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and anticancer activity in preclinical models, and it contains a blend of curcuminoids and volatile oils that differ from regular turmeric’s curcumin profile.
This turmeric is grown with love, free of harmful pesticides and chemicals.
What makes our turmeric special is the way we harvest it, each order is dug fresh from the ground once it comes in, then washed, dried, and sent on its way to you. Nothing sits around waiting.
