Description
Raw Organic Black Maca Powder
What Is Raw Black Maca Powder?
Raw black maca powder is made from dried black maca roots (Lepidium meyenii) grown in the high Andes of Peru. The roots are carefully dried and milled at low temperatures to preserve their natural composition. Black maca is the rarest of the three major maca colors, making up about 15% of the annual harvest, and is widely used as a traditional food ingredient in smoothies, drinks, and recipes.
Organic Raw Black Maca Powder Overview
Our raw black maca root powder is made from 100% organically grown black maca roots sourced from farmers in and around Junín, Peru. We work only with growers who manage their land locally and are committed to organic farming, careful handling, and producing high-quality Peruvian maca.
This raw black maca powder contains only pure black Peruvian maca root with no fillers, sweeteners, or additives. It is a popular choice for customers looking for a simple, traditional black maca root powder in raw powdered form.

Why Choose Raw Black Maca Powder?
Raw black maca powder is valued for its traditional use, naturally occurring nutrients, and versatility in food and drinks. It contains carbohydrates, plant protein, fiber, amino acids, fatty acids, minerals, and distinctive maca compounds naturally found in maca root. Many people add organic black maca powder to smoothies, juice, breakfast foods, and other recipes as part of a balanced daily diet.
Because black maca is the rarest of the three main maca colors, it is often chosen by customers who specifically want a raw maca powder made from black maca roots grown in Peru.
What Makes This Black Maca Different?
This product contains only pure raw black maca root powder from Peru. The roots are grown in the high Andes, harvested at maturity, sun-dried, stored carefully in dry conditions, and milled into powder only when ready for production. We then package in small batches to help maintain freshness.
Black maca is one of the three major maca colors and has a nutritional profile similar to yellow and red maca. To learn more, visit our guides on black maca and maca powder.
How to Use Raw Black Maca Powder
Raw black maca powder can be mixed into water, juice, milk, smoothies, or other drinks. It can also be added to oatmeal, yogurt, desserts, and other everyday recipes. Powder is often chosen by customers who want a flexible format that can be used in both simple drinks and more creative recipes.
Because powdered maca blends easily into food and beverages, it can be a practical option for customers who want to incorporate maca into a regular routine. For more ideas, visit our collection of maca recipes.
Raw maca retains its natural starches, which some customers specifically prefer. If you would rather use a preparation style that removes most starch content, see our gelatinized black maca powder. If convenience is your priority, you may also prefer black maca capsules or black maca extract.
Raw Black Maca Powder vs. Capsules or Extract
Raw black maca powder is typically the most versatile and cost-effective format per serving. It is easy to mix into drinks and recipes and gives you flexibility in how you use it. Capsules and extracts may be more convenient for travel or pre-measured use, but powder is often the better fit for customers who want maximum flexibility.
Who Often Chooses Raw Black Maca Powder?
Raw black maca powder is often chosen by customers who specifically want black maca in a traditional powdered form and who prefer using maca in smoothies, recipes, or other foods. Because raw maca retains its natural starches, it is often best suited for those who tolerate raw powdered foods well. Customers who prefer an easier-to-digest preparation style often choose gelatinized maca instead.

Suggested Use
Raw black maca powder is commonly used as a food. Many people begin with 3 grams daily (about 1 teaspoon) and gradually increase to 9 grams daily (about 3 teaspoons) based on preference and tolerance. Maca may be mixed with water, juice, milk, smoothies, or food. For more detailed guidance, visit our complete serving guidelines.

Definitely gives you energy
I was a little skeptical about this product initially. I had read a lot about Black Maca and decided to try it. I take it in the morning when I get up and in the middle of the afternoon when I am feeling a little tired. It will definitely give you the energy you need to get going. I am hooked on it now. Great product!

So far, so good!
Hi... I specifically enlisted the aid of the Black Maca, because I wanted more energy in the gym, and more force at home in the bed with my wife! I definitely see the difference. I've had it for about 2 weeks, and when I do remember to take it, I am pleasantly pleased. Looking forward to it's long term effects!!!!!

One Bad Maca Flower( in a good way)
I have tried several different sources of maca powder and this one is by far superior! I am currently living in Shanghai on business and have access to several types of maca offered out here. I've watched them pulverize it for me from actual root in Hong Kong and I've had friends import some for me from Malaysia. All far short in comparison to the quality offered by The Maca Team. I pay a little extra to have it shipped out this far and don't even flinch because it's worth it. Some of my friends out here from Hong Kong ask me to order for them as well now that they've tried it and love it, (not to mention the group pricing on shipping is always nice). I lift weights and live a fit and active life but also work long hours most days. I'm in my early thirties, in very good shape, eat healthy and don't believe I need any additional help. Having said that, this maca has helped me fill in the spaces of my nutrition and I feel more solid with it than without. I don't need to repeat all the benefits of what the company already states, but I would like to confirm them. I feel as though it helps my body run like the machine it should be. I'm starting to order some for everyone I care about as gifts. They'll thank me later. Thanks so much for what you do and I look forward to our long relationship together!

An excellent product! Works very well and lasts for a long time!

Awesome!
I purchased the Red and Black Maca recently and I'm very pleased with the product. The customer service is excellent and the shipping is fast. I take 1 tsp of the Red powder and 1 tsp of the Black powder daily. It definitely is not the best tasting thing, but if you blend it in a fruit smoothie then you can't even taste it. Great product! No complaints. :) I'll be ordering more.
