Description
Raw Tri-Color Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO, Vegan and Raw
What Is Raw Tri-Color Maca Powder?
Raw tri-color maca powder is a traditional blend of the three primary maca root colors: yellow, red, and black (Lepidium meyenii). In the Andes of Peru, maca roots were historically consumed together rather than separated by color. This blend reflects that traditional approach.
Our tri-color maca powder is made from approximately 40% yellow, 30% red, and 30% black maca roots. The powder remains “raw,” meaning it has not been heated above about 110°F / 41°C during processing.
Overview 
Our raw tri-color maca powder is made from maca roots grown by an organic farming cooperative in and around Junín, Peru—the traditional region where maca has been cultivated for centuries. The farmers we work with manage their land locally and follow long-standing agricultural practices that emphasize organic cultivation and careful harvesting.
This tri-color blend is sometimes called a “heritage harvest” product because it reflects the way maca has traditionally been consumed in the Andes.

Why Many Customers Choose Tri-Color Maca
Tri-color maca powder is often chosen by customers who want to experience the traditional blend of maca colors. Because the roots are not separated during harvest, tri-color maca products are typically more economical than single-color varieties.
This blend is frequently selected by people who are new to maca and want a simple way to incorporate maca root into their diet.
Advantages of Raw Tri-Color Maca Powder
- More economical: tri-color maca is generally less expensive than separated color varieties.
- Traditional preparation: it reflects the way maca has historically been consumed in the Andes.
- Balanced blend: includes yellow, red, and black maca roots.
- Mild flavor: many people find the taste milder than some single-color maca powders.
- Accessible starting point: a common choice for people trying maca for the first time.
Some customers start with tri-color maca and later explore specific maca colors such as red, yellow, or black. Others continue using the blend long-term.
Powder vs Capsules
Maca powder is typically more economical per serving than capsules because capsule production requires additional materials and processing. Powder also offers flexibility because it can be mixed into beverages, smoothies, and recipes.
Capsules, on the other hand, provide convenience and a standardized serving size. Some customers prefer capsules if they do not enjoy the taste of maca powder.
How to Use Raw Tri-Color Maca Powder
The simplest way to use maca powder is to mix it into water, milk, yogurt, or a smoothie. Many customers also incorporate maca into recipes such as oatmeal, baked goods, or energy drinks.
We offer an extensive maca recipe collection with many ideas for incorporating maca into everyday foods.

Tri Color Maca Root Powder
I've been purchasing Maca root product from The Maca Team for several years now. Admittedly, I've also purchased Maca from other sources as well. But over the years I've realized that there is no better source for Maca in terms of quality and consistency. Their pricing is always competitive as well and their customer service outstanding. For the last few years, The Maca Team has become my only trusted source for Maca products. With all that being said, I do have a suggestion based on my most recent purchase. After verifying it, I decided to make a change by adding another product but could not execute the change because the order page does not allow it. So I am suggesting that you make a change to your order page to allow for changes, additions, or deletions from the order AFTER it is placed but BEFORE it is fulfilled. Other vendors which I frequently use have this feature which I've found to be of much value. Hi Miles - That's a good suggestion. We will ask our software developer if there is a way to implement this going forward. Hopefully there is. If not, as you know, you can always call in or send an email if you need to make order changes once it's placed. Either way we're always happy to help. Enjoy the day! The Maca Team

Tri color maca root
Great product. Reasonably priced. Thanks.

Good food
I have used maca on and off for about 10yrs. I feel better when I am taking it, and I guess the closest description I can use is, balanced. I don't crave chocolate or sweets when I am taking maca regularly. To put it in some perspective, when I'm not taking maca regularly I can do some serious damage to a party size box of Oreos. I have taken red and black maca separately in the past, but currently I feel that the tri-color is an awesome balance of the maca's. I put it in breakfast smoothies for my husband and myself. I find the breakfast smoothie to be the easiest way to make sure it's taken every day.

Tri Color Maca Root
I ordered the Yellow my first order because I had never used Maca root before. I went for the milder one just to see how it tasted. I like spicy so I went the Tri Color route this time. Will order this from now on. I make a super smoothie ever evening using Maca Root and ground Golden Flaxseed. I'm 74 in great health and want to stay that way as long as possible. Both ingredients are super foods and I can tell the difference. I take NO prescription drugs, have NO joint/muscle pains. Lift weights/cardio 5-6x a week. My goal is to maintain a high quality of life as long as I can. Nutrition is a big part of that plan.

Tri color maca root powder
This is my first time ordering maca powder (from anywhere) so I really have nothing to compare to. However, communication was great and fast shipping. Product is easy to use albeit fairly messy (just the nature of the product I guess). Good value for the money, clean product and will be ordering another bag.

It's in the details!
This is not our first purchase with The Maca Team. Having tried several different brands of maca powder, we have come back to our favourite: The Maca Team! We have yet to come across a better quality, better valued powdered maca product. We absolutely love the dedication to the different colours, the blends, offering raw and gelatinized, the knowledge base, etc. Do it how the originals did it and consume the tri-blend! The Maca Team is our absolute favourite product and we will stick to them as our go-to maca source. Thank you so much!
