About HorticoGreens

Backed by Proven Horticultural Expertise

In 2018, three horticulturists, two of them former Kerala Agricultural University faculty, noticed that genuine Kasthuri Turmeric had almost disappeared, and a different plant was being sold in its place. They set out to grow the real one again. Today we bring the same care to every product: original, single-ingredient, nothing added.

    Questions answered

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I know this is genuine Kasthuri Turmeric?

    Check three things: the powder is cream to wheat-bran in colour (not bright yellow), it has a mild camphor-like aroma, and the rhizome's cut surface is cream rather than yellow. Ours is genuine Curcuma aromatica, grown and processed by horticulturists in Kerala.

    Is it the same as the turmeric I use for cooking?

    No. Kitchen turmeric is Curcuma longa and is deep yellow. Kasthuri Turmeric is a different species, traditionally used in face packs rather than food.

    Will it leave a yellow stain on my skin?

    Genuine Kasthuri Turmeric is cream-coloured, so it doesn't leave the strong yellow tint regular turmeric does. A light tint, if any, rinses off with water.

    Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

    Most people use it without any trouble, but every skin is different. Patch-test on your inner elbow 24 hours before first use. Mix it with milk, curd or rose water rather than applying it dry.

    Is Panam Kalkandu the same as regular sugar candy (kalkandu)?

    No. Regular kalkandu is crystallised cane sugar. Panam Kalkandu is crystallised from palm sap and has a mild, earthy sweetness. Ours is made from palm sap alone, with nothing added
