We buy in Peru, read the label, and ship it to you

Much of the maca and lúcuma sold abroad is bulk powder packed far from Peru, with the origin reduced to a single word. We stock the packs that sit on Peruvian shelves, from Peruvian brands such as Ecoandino, Inkanat and Andean Superfood, and send them from Lima.

Every product page lists what the pack itself declares: producer, region, certification and best-before date. When a pack doesn’t name a region, the page says so. We don’t fill the gap with a nice story.

Maca in three colors

Yellow, black and red maca are the same plant, Lepidium meyenii, grown above 3,800 meters in Junín and Pasco. Yellow is the mildest. Black has the strongest, earthiest taste.

Where each one grows

Peru goes from Amazon rainforest to 6,000-meter peaks to Pacific desert in a few hundred kilometers. Each of our products comes from its own altitude, from carob on the coast to maca at 4,100 meters.

Maca

Lepidium meyenii. Grown at 3,800 to 4,500 m on the plateaus of Junín and Pasco.

One of the few crops that grows above 4,000 meters. The dried root tastes malty, a little like butterscotch, and goes into smoothies, porridge and coffee.

How much to use, and where

Most of these are new to kitchens outside Peru. Here’s where to start with each one.

1 to 2 tablespoons (8 to 15 g) per serving
Tastes like
Maple, caramel and a little sweet potato.
Try it in
Smoothies, yogurt, ice cream or pancake batter.
Good to know

Shop lúcuma powder
1 to 2 teaspoons (3 to 6 g) a day
Tastes like
Malty and nutty, with a butterscotch finish.
Try it in
A banana smoothie, overnight oats or a latte.
Good to know
Start with one teaspoon. Gelatinized maca has been cooked before drying, which makes it gentler to eat raw.
Shop maca powder
1 to 2 tablespoons (5 to 10 g) per cup
Tastes like
Bitter, fruity, deep chocolate.
Try it in
Hot chocolate, brownies or a smoothie bowl.
Good to know

Tastes like
Nutty and slightly grassy.
Try it in

Good to know

Tastes like
Naturally sweet, like cocoa with a hint of dates.
Try it in

Good to know

Before you order

Something else on your mind? Write to us or read our shipping policy.

Which countries do you ship to?

We ship from Lima to the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Shipping costs and delivery estimates are shown at checkout, before you pay.

How long does delivery take?

We send every order with Serpost, Peru’s national postal service. Standard registered airmail takes about 10 to 30 days after the parcel leaves Lima, and express (EMS) about 7 to 10 days, depending on your country. You’ll see both options and their prices at checkout, before you pay.

How do I track my order?

We email your Serpost tracking number as soon as the parcel leaves Lima. You can follow it on our order tracking page, and once it arrives in your country, on your local postal service’s website.

Will I pay import duties?

In the US, no: import duties are paid when we ship and added at checkout, so there’s nothing to pay on delivery. In the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, your country may charge duties or taxes on delivery, depending on the order value. Every order travels with a customs declaration that lists its contents and value.

Can I pay without a card?

Yes. Choose “Money transfer” at checkout and send the total in US dollars with Western Union or Remitly. You’ll see who to send it to after you order, and we ship once the money arrives.

Are your products organic?

Many are certified organic: USDA Organic, EU Organic or both. We only call a product organic when the certification is printed on its pack, and the product page shows which one.

Are your products gluten free?

Quinoa, kiwicha, lúcuma, maca and carob are naturally gluten free. Whether a pack is certified gluten free depends on the producer, so check the label details on each product page.

What’s the difference between yellow, black and red maca?

They’re the same plant, Lepidium meyenii, with roots of different colors. Yellow is the most common and the mildest. Black and red are grown in smaller amounts and sold separately; black has the strongest, earthiest taste.

How do I use maca powder?

Start with one teaspoon (about 3 g) stirred into a smoothie, porridge or coffee. The pack shows the producer’s recommended serving. Gelatinized maca has been cooked before drying, which makes it the easier choice if you eat it raw.

How long do the powders keep?

Sealed, most keep for a year or more. The best-before date is on each pack and on its product page. Once open, close the pouch tightly and store it somewhere cool, dry and dark.

What if my order arrives damaged?

Write to us with your order number and a photo of the parcel and the product. Because these are food products, opened packs can’t be returned, but a damaged or wrong item will be replaced or refunded. Our returns policy has the details.
