Botanical Name: Juglans Nigra
Country of Origin: USA
English Name: Black Walnut Hull
Hindi Name: Akhrot Chhal
Also Known As: Black Walnut Hull Powder, Juglans nigra Hull Powder, Akhrot Hull Powder
Part Used: Dried hull of Juglans nigra, finely milled
Description: Black Walnut Hull Powder is produced from the dried hulls of Juglans nigra, a hardwood tree native to North America. The mature hulls are collected, thoroughly cleaned to remove natural debris, and dried to maintain their deep brown to dark brown colour. After drying, the hulls are finely milled into a consistent powder that preserves the natural appearance and texture of the raw material.
The hulls of Juglans nigra form a thick outer layer around the nut, developing rich, dark tones as they mature. When milled into powder, the material retains its earthy colour and slightly coarse, fibrous character. The fine consistency allows for smooth blending into dry mixtures, natural colouring projects, and various botanical preparations.
Fresh hulls are washed, dried using controlled warm-air or low-temperature methods to reduce moisture, and ground into a uniform powder before being sifted for consistency.
Uses: Black Walnut Hull Powder is used in natural colouring applications, botanical craft blends, resin art, incense-style mixtures, and educational herb kits. Its fine texture and deep natural colour make it suitable for creative, decorative, and formulation-focused projects.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
