Organic Premium Raw Red Maca Powder

Organic Premium Raw Red Maca Powder from The Maca Team
Organic Premium Raw Red Maca Powder made from fresh-processed red maca roots from Peru.

Our Organic Premium Raw Red Maca Powder is made from 100% red maca roots grown in the high Andes of Peru. Unlike traditional sun-dried maca, the freshly harvested roots used for our Premium maca are processed shortly after harvest and gently dried at controlled low temperatures.

This fresh-processing method gives Premium red maca powder a distinctive color and a stronger, more pronounced flavor than traditional sun-dried maca. The finished powder is certified organic, Fair Trade, non-GMO, vegan and raw, with no fillers, sweeteners or unnecessary additives.

What Is Premium Raw Red Maca Powder?

Premium Raw Red Maca Powder is a fresh-processed form of maca powder made exclusively from red maca roots. The roots are grown by an organic farming cooperative in and around Junín, Peru, one of the traditional maca-growing regions of the Andes.

The key difference is what happens after harvest. Rather than being slowly dried outdoors in the mountain sun, freshly harvested Premium maca roots are transported for processing and dried in controlled dehydrators at low temperatures.

What Makes Premium Maca Different?

Traditional raw maca is generally sun-dried before it is milled into powder. Premium maca follows a different process: the roots are handled soon after harvest and dried under controlled conditions.

This produces a maca powder with a different flavor, color and composition from traditionally sun-dried maca. Premium maca also tends to have a stronger, more pronounced flavor and is produced in smaller seasonal quantities because processing must take place around the annual harvest.

Why Choose Premium Raw Red Maca?

Fresh red maca roots used to make our Premium Raw Red Maca Powder.

Premium Raw Red Maca is a good choice for customers who specifically prefer the fresh-processed preparation method rather than traditionally sun-dried maca. It provides the convenience and flexibility of a powder while using only red maca roots.

The flavor is earthy and malty, with a stronger and more pronounced character than standard sun-dried maca. Many people prefer to blend it into smoothies, yogurt, oatmeal, juice or recipes where its distinctive flavor can be combined with other ingredients.

If you prefer traditionally sun-dried maca, compare our Organic Raw Red Maca Powder. If you prefer a red maca powder with much of its natural starch removed during processing, see our Organic Gelatinized Red Maca Powder.

How to Use Premium Raw Red Maca Powder

Premium Raw Red Maca Powder can be mixed into smoothies, water, juice, plant milk, yogurt, oatmeal and other foods or beverages. Its stronger flavor also works well in recipes where maca is combined with fruit, cacao, nut butters or other ingredients.

Storage and Shelf Life

Store your Premium Raw Red Maca Powder in a sealed container or sealed bag away from direct sunlight, excess heat and humidity. When properly stored, the powder keeps well for up to approximately 24 months.

Suggested Use

Many people begin with about 1 teaspoon (3 g) daily and gradually increase to 1–3 teaspoons (3–9 g) daily based on preference and tolerance. Premium Raw Red Maca Powder may be mixed with water, juice, smoothies, yogurt or other foods.

  4. Eileen (verified owner) –

    I used to use the capsules but I find this easier to adjust and I enjoy it in coffee and tea. I am a long time user, love the product for post menopausal and pre. It just makes me feel better and I notice a difference when I miss talking it.

  7. Mariska Ciochia (verified owner) –

    I’ve used the Red Raw Maca Powder before but this is the first time I’m using the Premium version. I love it just as much. It is definitely a bit stronger in flavor, which is no problem for me. I love the taste in my smoothies. This one makes my banana/berry smoothie taste like popcorn! A yummy added flavor. ? I personally love both of the Red macas. They have become part of my daily life. They really do balance hormones. It helped regulate my cycle, reduce pms, increase my energy, mood, and fertility. Thank you maca team!

  8. Steve Hartley (verified owner) –

    Maca team has the best quality of Maca.
    Would not purchase from any other company.Very Good Service!

  9. Jenyl Johnson (verified owner) –

    Have used for years, this last bag I purchased doesn’t seem the same. I usually out a scoop in hot water, mix and drink. This bag clumps up not dissolving making it hard to consume.

    From The Maca Team: Thanks Jenyl for reaching out. We have responded via email directly to you. Since maca is a natural product there can be slight variation from batch to batch, depending on a lot of factors including the weather, the farm on which it was grown, when it was harvested, etc. Clumping happens because maca is hydrostatic (easily retains water). We try to break it up before packaging but sometimes a few do remain. If that’s the case, we recommend blending maca in a blender with your liquid of choice to break it up. Hope that helps!

  10. Olivia Taylor (verified owner) –

    I had a hard time trying this as a supplement, even though I was warned that the taste was not pleasant. I took about one teaspoon in several different forms, like mixed into pancakes, a smoothie, and made into capsules. There was a rotten flavor to the powder that I had trouble getting over – it was worst in the smoothie, but taking a capsule gave me burps with the rotten flavor. It actually made me gag quite hard in the smoothie, and each time after taking it I had a bad stomach ache, kind of like a small stomach bug. I tried it about 7 times, couldn’t keep going because the taste continues to make me gag.

    From The Maca Team: We’re sorry for your experience Olivia. Maca root does have an earthy flavor that some people really don’t like. We might suggest that you try one of our maca extracts instead. Those taste sweet (because of the vegetable glycerin used in the extraction process). Those should help. We’ve also reached out on email.

  11. HENRY GAITAN URREA (verified owner) –

    Excelente calidad. Muy buen sabor. Seguiré comprando esta deliciosa maca roja.

  12. CHARLES OBRIEN (verified owner) –

    Best that I have used so far, got educated about Maca a long time ago but only used it sparingly. Recently was diagnosed with an enlarged prostate, knew I had to start taking Red Maca for it, one year later my prostate is normal sized now. Urologist can’t believe it, I don’t do pharmaceutical anything.

  13. Eve (verified owner) –

  16. Elizabeth (verified owner) –

    I’ve been using it now a little over a month. Started noticing results after 3 weeks. I’m 53 and going through Menopause. A friend suggested this to try and it really helps with all the sweating night or day, mood swings, headaches, helped on sugar cravings, and helps keep my bowels moving.

    The red Maca root powder works great for me. I make smoothies with cocoa powder, banana, or whatever else yummy fruits, milk, or yogurt. I have on hand I like to use honey as a sweetener or maple syrup. Yum perfect for lunch. Great product.

  21. Saren Ortiz (verified owner) –

    I purchased the Red Maca powder and have purchased from the Maca Team in the past. This is one of the best quality Maca powders out there. I would recommend this brand to anyone interested in trying Maca for the first time, or a veteran Maca lover.

  22. Crystal Greer (verified owner) –

    This is my second order of red Maca root powder. The first one was excellent. The bag I was just sent was incredibly dry and full of very hard clumps. No matter what I do, even using a powerful frother, they will not dissolve even in boiling hot tea. I end up with very large clumps in my drink, and it’s pretty hard to get it down.

    Hi Crystal – That’s strange, we’ll contact you on email and get it straightened out. Thanks!

  23. RRedsky (verified owner) –

    We mix the red, black, and yellow maca powders together and use in smoothies, popsicles, puddings and other recipes. Makes a difference in overall health, energy, and general outlook. Sleeping better, too. Highly recommend these products. The quality is unbeatable.

  24. Deira A (verified owner) –

    I’m giving it two starts due to the taste. I had previously bought a bag of the organic red maca, and even though the taste wasn’t my favorite, I could drink it in just water. The taste of the premium one is so strong that I tried to mix with with milk and added cinnamon as recommended but it still lives a burning sensation in my stomach and makes me nauseous. I tried to exchange it/return it but they told me that was not possible because the product was opened. I’m still trying to figure out how to drink it. I might have to buy a bad of regular maca and mix it so the taste is snot so strong. So please be aware that the taste of the premium one is not like the regular maca, I wish I knew this.

    Hi Deira, We know that the taste of Premium maca is not for everyone and try to make that as clear as possible on the website. We’ve reached out via email to see if we can help further.

  25. Neal (verified owner) –

    I’m 74 and in excellent health. I’ve added Red Maca to my morning routine, usually mixed with beet powder in water or added to a smoothie with ground flaxseed. It’s become a simple way to rehydrate and start the day. I feel like Maca first thing in the morning gives me a clean, steady energy that lasts, and I’m glad I added it to my routine.

  26. Janet mcGovern (verified owner) –

    I do not like the Taste. I have found a hardy helping of pure maple syrup helps A Lot. I’m trying to finish it first so I can enjoy the Yellow maca at my leisure.

    Hi Janet, Yes, the premium maca products can have a strong taste for many people. We try to make that very clear on the website, but individual taste is hard to account for as everyone is unique. Hopefully you can find a way to use this one alongside your yellow powder.

  27. Layla Alonso (verified owner) –

    So far so satisfied :) I wish there were more recipients listed but nothing creativity can’t overcome!

    Magical for strength and endurance always in my smoothies. Customer service is excellent. They stand by their product and keep their word. Customer for life!

  30. Karen Lachney (verified owner) –

    Just received, so unsure of effect it will have . Main problem is the very strong flavor. I am having trouble getting it down. Tried in coffee and water . The taste is not good and I wish I had gone with pills . Will update later on and continue to try to get it down .

  31. Andrea (verified owner) –

    Great addition to my health

  32. Becky (verified owner) –

    Haven’t been using it long enough to really know if it works or not. I have learned that I have to take the product with food or else I get very bloated. If you are looking for something that tastes great, this isn’t it. Not all wonderful things are tastey.

  33. Sara (verified owner) –

    Love it! I use it for my smoothies.

  34. Carol (verified owner) –

    Great tasting!

  35. Anonymous (verified owner) –

    I was told by a friend that she used this before trying to get pregnant. I then purchased this product with the intention to help with fertility. After taking this for only a few weeks I got my first positive pregnancy test after trying to conceive for about 7-8 months. This may have been a coincedence or it may have been this product that helped. Maca was the only thing we did different the month we conceived. My partner also took the black maca so we both were taking it every day. Would highly recommend trying this product! I mixed mine in with a smoothie which helped me drink it easier.

  36. Ric Tyler (verified owner) –

    This Raw Red Maca is a very powerful daily supplement, always fresh and of the highest quality. Pairs well with the Raw Black Maca.

  37. Walt (verified owner) –

    I have purchased various brands of Maca powder, and I have been satisfied with those previous purchases. There is something higher about the quality of The Maca Team’s maca. The taste is richer, and I believe them when they say that their sourcing and harvesting practices are impeccable.

  38. Judy Bell (verified owner) –

    After reading about the benefits, I had to see for myself. I wasn’t disappointed! I feel so much better with more energy

  39. Thomas Gordon (verified owner) –

    No matter how much I cut the amount it still makes me nauseous.

    From The Maca Team: Hi Thomas, we’ve reached out to you on email too, but just so you know Premium Maca products are intense in their taste (a bit spicy like a radish) and not for everyone. We’d recommend trying one of our extracts or capsules instead. That way you avoid the taste entirely.

  40. Anonymous (verified owner) –

    ABSOLUTELY A GREAT PRODUCT. WILL DEFINITELY BUY AGAIN IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THANK YOU.

  44. Sheila Meserschmidt (verified owner) –

    I can’t find a way to use this that is palatable. Puts the taste of creamed corn in whatever I add it to. I wish there was a wider range of recipes to try.

    “Actually we have over 50 recipes here: https://www.themacateam.com/maca-recipes. And if the taste is still unpalatable for you we’d recommend using our capsules or extracts instead. Hope that helps!” – The Maca Team

    Looking forward to feeling it’s benefits because it’s one of the most horrible tastes! But if it does what you advertise, it will be worth it!

  49. Lea Hubert (verified owner) –

    I love this maca. I use it to help ease the symptoms of my menopause. Hot flashes are more like a slight warm flush now and I don’t drown in night sweats anymore. I’ve used it for a couple years now and the quality is great. Will continue to be a loyal customer.

  50. David (verified owner) –

    I’ve been using this maca powder daily for about 6 weeks now. I make it into a hot drink by pouring boiling water over ~20g of powder in a large mug and then topping it off with maple syrup and whole milk. It’s delicious and has had all the expected effects.

  51. M. Young (verified owner) –

    Does slightly change taste but add a lil honey and it’s fine. I am still awaiting to see if I gain weight like the claim says. It’s been about 3 weeks so I am about to order a new package to continue to drinking it in my smoothies everyday. This package lasted exactly for 15 uses, using 2- 3 tablespoons each time

  52. Jackie (verified owner) –

    Excellent product….it is Better quality that what you get at Whole Foods or elsewhere..buy from this Co…..I have been using the Premium Red Maca Powder for over 1 year for peri menopause night sweats and hot flashes, it works!

    I love using the powder so I can tailor the “dose” more easily. The Maca Team products are the only Maca I have ever found to be effecting in increasing energy and over all health.

  55. Jackie (verified owner) –

    Excellent product. It has 90% helped with night sweats due to peri menopause. I think it has also increased libido a bit….Great Company also.

  56. Lea (verified owner) –

    I’ve used this blended with half black maca every morning for the last several years. This was in 53 and going through menopause. Hot flashes were a problem until I started taking this regularly. Now no more night sweats or hot flashes. Best quality maca product I’ve tried by far.

    Service, price, packaging etc 5 stars. However, I can only trust that it actually IS MACA, as I have not had it tested. One one occasion from another supplier, I was sent what I realised much later, was cocoa.

  62. Ciaara Riverah (verified owner) –

    I have been buying Maca Root Powder from The Maca Team for 2 years now and before that I have used maca powder for at least 4 years. So far this is the best quality I have ever bought and trust me I have bought just about every brand out there. I also never knew there were different types of maca until I went on their website. Great company and you can always trust the quality and therefore the effects you are seeking. the best!

  63. Virgil Marsh (verified owner) –

    I’ve noticed some of the belly bloat the taste is mild and I’m going to stick with it to see if any noticable changes happen later on

  64. Tim Allen (verified owner) –

    Have been taking Red Maca to promote prostate health for about 3 weeks. I take it with my morning coffee and I am developing a taste for the nutty flavor with my coffee. A bit of abdominal gas initially, but subsiding. I am experiencing a noticeable decrease in Nocturia and improved pee flow. So far so good.

  65. Ruth Wallace (verified owner) –

    I have been using this Maca for about 3 years, to help regulate my Cycles. It only took a few months to notice a difference and regulate my cycle, it also helped lighten and shorten my cycles! So I continue to purchase form these wonderful people. If I have a question, they quickly reply with answers. Thank you Maca Team!

    Will buy again

  68. Elizabeth G Albelo (verified owner) –

    I drink it with my morning coffee every day and it does have a distinct taste to it but it’s not bad at all. I only take it once a day and it’s recommended 2-3 times daily so it’s not fair for me to say it’s not working because I’m not using it as directed. I would buy it again because it’s affordable and a good organic addition to my diet.

  69. Jerry S (verified owner) –

    I have purchased maca from different websites but yours is the best.

    I am a faithful client. thank you Maca Team

  71. Jess (verified owner) –

    I started off taking the pill form to help with low to nonexistent sex drive and almost immediately noticed an increase in my energy levels. Which was a good thing because I’ve also been depressed and just wanting to stay in bed all day eating junk food. So when my supply ran low I ordered the powder form because it will last longer. I mean after all, it has helped increase my energy level so what else can it do, right?! I am a newly turned 37 year old woman with three girls and I don’t remember wanting sex so badly when I was younger. Totally not complaining!!! And neither is my husband! Ever since I started taking the Maca root, my whole family had noticed a big difference! I add 2 tsp to my coffee or hot tea every morning. I highly recommend this product and tell everyone I know about it!! It has changed my life in more ways than one.

  72. Sheena (verified owner) –

    After doing research I found that Maca Root assists in weight and muscle gain. I was really impressed that it also assists in gaining weight in the right places, as a vegan my body has went through different changes, so I was happy to find a safe product that could assist me in a full yet skin shape. The product came fast, nicely sealed with instructions on how to use. I mostly used it in my smoothies.Sometimes when I was lazy , I would sprinkle it on my salad. It definitely assisted with energy boosting. I wouldn’t suggest taking it before bed. I was up all night!! The only downfall for me was the digestion. It make me constipated. TMI I know but I want to be authentic as possible. I am know awaiting my liquid Maca Root as it said to digest better. Oh my butt and boobs have gotten more fuller. And my face filled out as well. Still working on other muscle groups. I recommend this product just be mindful that it may be hard to digest and you may have to prepare it differently then what I did. I may dry using it in baking good (powder) so that my money doesn’t go to waste.

  73. Sylvia Hoffstetter (verified owner) –

    I have just worked up to taking the 1 tsp Serving size, but not quite taking it daily yet. I’m not having any GI trouble with my transition from the gelatinized form. I don’t mind the taste in water, but I use it mostly in Smoothies.

    Not sure if it is red maca. I have purchased red maca a couple times before and this is not the same color or taste. Pale white powder, and taste horrible.

  79. Cheri (verified owner) –

    I have been taking red maca powder to balance my hormones and it absolutely works! It took about 4 weeks for it to kick in so be patient and be sure to take it everyday to see results. The way I take it is by heating in up in a cup of my homemade chaga tea with a half teaspoon of Ashwaghanda which is another adaptogen. I then add a little maple syrup and it is so rich and earthy tasting. Also, my skin has never felt softer and my hair is very thick and luxurious. So grateful for this product and this company that carries it! Thank you Maca Team!

  80. Ruth Wallace (verified owner) –

    I’ve tried other Maca from other companies, but find The Maca Team puts out the best results in my case. I will continue to purchase through this company. I also appreciate all the research offered on line and a look at the industry world wide. Great product results in energy and hormonal balance among others with Red Maca Powder.

  81. Deondra Sheree –

    Since taking this Red Maca every morning I feel more vibrant and in a good mood, wonderful fresh product. Also help with growth of hair and acne. Great prompt service.

  82. Scott M. –

    I have been consuming different forms of maca for over 15 years from just about every popular brand name company out there and can say without a doubt this is the best so far. I don’t hesitate to go straight for the taste test of the powder itself with only water to wash it down to see the full flavor profile…that way I can really experience whether or not it has that spicy earthy kick which is a tell sign of its potency / quality / nutritional makeup and density. This maca make me feel as though I have been getting ripped off for 15 years and should have been ordering from the Maca Team. Yes, I will be purchasing Black and Red Premium maca from this company as long as its available…one of my favorites things is to make a few warm cups a matcha tea and mix it together. Thanks for the goods!

  83. Sam –

    I’ve been dealing with ongoing balance issues and recently started taking the red maca and it has helped me soooooo much in terms of feeling more energized as well as less stressed, and my overall drive has also increased.

  84. Kent McShan –

    Great product

  85. Jessica –

    I’ve tried a few different powders and tinctures to balance my hormones, mostly to stop hot flashes and to feel better. This Maca powder stopped my hot flashes within a few days. I recently had blood work done and it showed my hormones are now within the normal ranges!! I highly recommend the Raw Red Maca from The Maca Team for anyone who is having hot flashes and wants to balance their hormones naturally and safely. Also, The Maca Team is one of the few companies that actually get their maca directly from Peru and not China.

  88. Timothy Holcombe –

    I take a lot of supplements so can’t say for sure what exactly works and does not half the time; however I love this product for the taste and smell alone. I know some people apparently don’t like the taste of Maca but this brand is really yummy. I also have never had any digestion issues with this brand of Maca. I am taking 9 grams per day of the Red Raw Premium- mixed in a smoothie. So if Maca is everything it’s cracked up to be, and if the COA’s are accurate; I would highly recommend this product.

  89. Kimalee Reid –

    Since taking this red maca very morning I feel more vibrant and strong, wonderful fresh product. Great prompt service, my maca arrived quickly.

    I used to buy raw organic maca from another company and they discontinued it. In searching for another source three years ago I stumbled upon this website that specializes in only maca and have been a loyal customer since.

    Love this Maca! Have been taking it everyday for almost a year.The taste is great in a smoothie. Most of all, I am so thankful it brought me relief from the 3 Menopausal Hot Flashes an hour I was experiencing prior to taking it. Now I may have 2 Hot Flashes a week. And I feel wonderful about it being natural & safe–& because of it–not having to take Hormone Replacement Therapy. I have more energy & feel more balanced overall! It also arrives quickly after placing an order without paying more for quicker shipping. I highly recommend this product for Menopausal women! Thank you Maca Team for providing such a fantastic,
    life-enhancing gift!

    Long story short, I lost my period a few years ago due to over exercising and not eating enough. I did lots of research, quit doing so much exercise and started eating better. I also started supplementing with Maca which has truly made a huge difference. My libido came back like a teenage kid and I find myself having more energy for other areas of life as well as better moods!

    This powder is great tasting and seems superior to other Maca brands I have found in Trader JoeÕs and whole foods shelves. Will definitely purchase again.

    I’ve returned to the red after years of the premium mix. I like the red better; flavor, increase in energy, all around better taste.
    Thank you

    I read reviews that the red maca root powder helped to ease hot flashes and since I intended to stop HRT, I needed an alternative. I have used the powder for two and half weeks and have noticed a decrease in the number of hot flashes, so I am very hopeful that this trend continues.

    Best Maca on the market. I believe this is what’s keeping me off the Doctors medication for my prostate. My PSA has gotten as high as 6.8. Last check with taking Maca and no medication it was 3.4.

    Always been very satisfied with this product over several years.
    Thank you

    I take a lot of supplements so can’t say for sure what exactly works and does not half the time; however I love this product for the taste and smell alone. I know some people apparently don’t like the taste of Maca but this brand is really yummy. I also have never had any digestion issues with this brand of Maca. I am taking 9 grams per day of the Red Raw Premium- mixed in a smoothie. So if Maca is everything it’s cracked up to be, and if the COA’s are accurate; I would highly recommend this product.

    Since taking this red maca very morning I feel more vibrant and strong, wonderful fresh product. Great prompt service, my maca arrived quickly.

    I used to buy raw organic maca from another company and they discontinued it. In searching for another source three years ago I stumbled upon this website that specializes in only maca and have been a loyal customer since.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Premium Raw Red Maca Powder?
Premium Raw Red Maca Powder is made from 100% red maca roots grown in Peru. The roots are fresh processed shortly after harvest and dried at controlled low temperatures rather than being traditionally sun-dried.

What makes this red maca powder “Premium”?
The Premium designation refers primarily to the processing method. Freshly harvested red maca roots are taken to a processing facility soon after harvest and dried in controlled dehydrators rather than being slowly dried in the mountain sun. This produces a powder with a different flavor, color, and composition from traditional sun-dried maca.

How is Premium maca different from standard sun-dried maca?
Standard maca is traditionally dried in the sun after harvest. Premium maca is processed shortly after harvest and dried at controlled low temperatures. Premium maca also tends to have a stronger, more pronounced flavor than traditional sun-dried maca.

How is raw red maca different from gelatinized red maca?
Raw red maca retains its naturally occurring starches. Gelatinized red maca is cooked during processing to remove much of the natural starch, which some people find easier to digest.

What does Premium Raw Red Maca taste like?
Premium Raw Red Maca has an earthy, malty flavor that is generally stronger and more pronounced than standard sun-dried red maca. Many people prefer to mix it into smoothies, juice, oatmeal, yogurt, or other recipes.

How much Premium Raw Red Maca Powder should I use?
Many people begin with about 1 teaspoon (3 g) daily and gradually increase to 1–3 teaspoons (3–9 g) daily based on preference and tolerance. For more detailed guidance, visit our complete serving guidelines.

How should I use red maca powder?
Premium Raw Red Maca Powder can be mixed into smoothies, water, juice, yogurt, oatmeal, or other foods and recipes. For more ideas, visit our collection of maca recipes.

Is raw red maca easy to digest?
Raw maca retains its naturally occurring starches and may be harder to digest for some people. If you have a sensitive stomach, you may prefer our gelatinized red maca powder, which has much of the natural starch removed during processing.

Is Premium Raw Red Maca organic, vegan and non-GMO?
Yes. Our Premium Raw Red Maca Powder is certified organic, Fair Trade, non-GMO, vegan, and raw. It is made from 100% Peruvian red maca root powder with no unnecessary additives.
