Carom Seeds (Ajwain) FAQs

Common questions about thymol content, sourcing, and applications of Indian Ajwain.

The potency of Ajwain is defined by its Thymol content, which typically ranges from 2% to 4% in our export-grade seeds. This high thymol concentration gives the seeds their sharp, thyme-like flavor and powerful digestive properties.
Gujarat’s semi-arid climate and soil conditions produce "Bold" grade ajwain seeds that are uniform in size and rich in essential oils. This region is the global hub for premium medicinal and culinary carom seeds.
Beyond culinary use in bakery and snacks, Ajwain is a key raw material for Thymol extraction in the pharmaceutical industry. It is used in cough syrups, digestive tonics, and as a natural antimicrobial agent in oral care products.
When stored in a cool, dry place in our standard 25kg PP/Jute bags, Ajwain has a shelf life of 12-18 months. Our standard MOQ for international shipping is 300kg.
