The nutty flavour and rich health benefits makes it ideal for everyday cooking as well as special occasions.  The dark colour of black wheat comes from anthocyanins, natural plant pigments also found in blueberries and other deeply coloured foods.

Storage Tips Store in an airtight container Keep in a cool, dry place away from sunlight Best before: 2 months from milling Because this is stone-ground and chemical-free, it is best consumed fresh Farm to Plate Journey Our black wheat is grown by small and marginal farmers in Western Rajasthan, a semi-arid region where crops must work with the land, not against it. This makes black wheat a natural fit for the region’s climate and water realities. The grain is sourced through Bahula Naturals, a farmer collective rooted in the region. Bahula works directly with farmers, providing agronomy support and assured procurement. Crop choices are based on regional suitability, not market trends or yield pressure. Once harvested, the wheat is stone-ground by Swadesi Way using a traditional chakki, slowly milled at low temperatures to preserve natural oils, fibre, and the grain’s inherent character.
