Black maca is the rarest variety of maca with black skin and a pale yellow centre. Known as Peruvian ginseng, black maca is traditionally taken for libido, stamina, muscle strength, bone density, mood, memory and focus and is also used to nourish and support male fertility and overall vitality.

Our organic black maca is hand harvested and sun dried at altitude to ensure potency and freshness are uncompromised. Gently heated in the traditional way for easier digestion and better absorption, the maca roots are then ground into a fine powder. fine powder.
