Our organic Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca is made from a traditional-style blend of approximately 40% yellow, 30% red and 30% black maca roots grown near Junín, Peru.
Instead of being traditionally dried in the Andean sun for several weeks, freshly harvested roots are processed shortly after harvest using low-temperature dehydration. The maca remains below 105°F / 40°C throughout processing, keeping it in a raw, non-gelatinized form.
This fresh-processing method preserves higher levels of naturally occurring glucosinolates, standardized at more than 1% in the finished product. Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca is lighter in color and has a noticeably stronger, spicier flavor than our traditionally sun-dried Raw Tri-Color Maca.
You can learn more about how we source and evaluate our maca in Our Standards, Maca Sourcing, and Maca Safety, Testing & Certificates of Analysis.
Once you have decided that Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca is the processing style you want, choose the format that best fits your routine. We offer powder, capsules and liquid extract.
Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca powder is the most flexible and economical way to use this fresh-processed maca blend regularly.
Our powder is finely milled and works well in smoothies, drinks, oatmeal, yogurt and recipes. Because of the premium fresh-processing method, it has a noticeably stronger and spicier maca flavor than our traditionally sun-dried Raw Tri-Color Maca.
Choose powder if you want maximum flexibility, the lowest cost per serving and do not mind a more pronounced maca flavor.

Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca capsules contain the same fresh-processed maca powder in a convenient format without the strong maca taste.
We fill our capsules in-house using 100% pure maca powder. They contain no fillers, flow agents, anti-caking agents or additives, and the vegetable-cellulose capsules are vegan.
Choose capsules if convenience, portability, consistent serving size and avoiding the stronger premium maca flavor are priorities.

Premium Tri-Color Maca liquid extract offers the same three-color concept in a compact vegetable-glycerin-based liquid format.
The bottle is easy to carry and provides an alternative for people who prefer liquid maca rather than powder or capsules.
Premium refers to the processing method rather than a different grade of maca root. Both our standard and Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca use high-quality Peruvian maca roots.
The difference is what happens immediately after harvest.
This fresh-processing method preserves higher glucosinolate levels and produces a noticeably stronger, spicier flavor. Our Premium Maca is standardized at more than 1% glucosinolates.
The temperatures remain below 105°F / 40°C, so Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca remains in a raw, non-gelatinized form.
Maca naturally grows in a range of colors and shades. The three primary color groups are yellow, red and black.
Historically, maca roots from a harvest were commonly stored, prepared and consumed together rather than separated by color. Color-selected yellow, red and black maca products became more widely available later.
We call our Tri-Color Maca a Heritage Harvest blend because it reflects this older tradition of using the naturally occurring maca colors together.
Our blend contains approximately 40% yellow, 30% red and 30% black maca roots.
Both products combine yellow, red and black maca roots, both remain raw, and both are processed below 105°F / 40°C. The primary difference is how the roots are dried.
Premium processing produces higher glucosinolate levels and a stronger, spicier flavor. Standard Raw Tri-Color Maca follows the traditional sun-dried preparation and has a somewhat softer flavor.
Premium Maca also costs more to produce because fresh processing is time-sensitive, requires specialized equipment and can only be carried out during the annual harvest when fresh roots are available.
If you prefer the traditional sun-dried Heritage Harvest preparation, explore our Raw Tri-Color Maca collection.
For a more detailed explanation of the two drying methods, see our Premium vs. Sun-Dried Maca guide.
Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca may be a particularly good fit if:
If you have sensitive digestion, consider our Premium Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca instead.
Our Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca begins with freshly harvested maca roots grown near Junín, Peru, high in the Andes.
Instead of being laid out for traditional sun drying, selected fresh roots are taken shortly after harvest for processing and dried using low-temperature dehydration while remaining below 105°F / 40°C.
The yellow, red and black maca roots are blended at approximately 40% yellow, 30% red and 30% black.
Once dried, the maca is finely milled as needed, tested and packaged. It does not go through the additional pre-cooking step used to produce gelatinized maca.
This processing method preserves higher levels of naturally occurring glucosinolates while keeping the finished product raw. Our Premium Maca is standardized at more than 1% glucosinolates.
Because Premium Maca must begin with freshly harvested roots, it can only be produced during the annual harvest season and is naturally more limited in supply than traditionally sun-dried maca.
Both products begin with freshly harvested yellow, red and black maca roots and use the same premium fresh-processing method. The difference is whether the maca goes through an additional gelatinization step.
If you want the premium fresh-processing method and have normal to strong digestion, Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca may be the better fit. If you want the same premium processing but prefer a lower-starch preparation that is easier for many people to digest, Premium Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca may be preferable.
For more about the difference between raw and pre-cooked maca, see our Raw vs. Gelatinized Maca guide.
