About This Product
Rajasthan Ajwain Seeds
Ajwain (Trachyspermum ammi), also known as carom seeds or Bishop's Weed, is one of India's most characteristically pungent spices — a small, ridged seed with an intensely aromatic, thyme-like fragrance. Rajasthan is the principal growing region, producing ajwain with naturally high volatile oil content (3.5%+) dominated by thymol (35%+).
PAX Herbal supplies machine-cleaned whole ajwain seeds and ajwain powder. Volatile oil and thymol content are tested per batch. The essential oil (extracted separately) is a major commercial product used in pharmaceutical cough formulations, antifungal preparations and flavour industry applications. Both food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade material is available.
Ajwain is also a significant digestive herb in Ayurveda — used in antiflatulence and digestive preparations. We supply to food manufacturers, pharma companies, essential oil distillers and Ayurvedic formulators across India, Europe and the Middle East.
