Appearance & Aroma
Fine, free-flowing powder with a natural brown colour and good lustre; milled from medium to bold, uniform-graded cumin seeds for a smooth, consistent texture.
Strong, earthy flavor with an aromatic, warm profile preferred by international buyers. Cumin does not use an SHU rating like chillies — essential oil content (2%–4%) is the accepted pungency/aroma indicator.
