Details
Product Overview:
Half Roasted Nakumatt features dense, partially roasted clay chunks crafted from premium Indian Nakumatt clay. With crisp roasted edges and a solid, weighty feel, these chunks deliver a bold, satisfying crunch and intense mineral taste. The flavour is deep and grounded — a fusion of burnt clay, petrichor, and wet cement with cave-like undertones. The partial roasting locks in moisture while intensifying the aroma and hardness, making it a favourite for those who enjoy strong texture and layered earthy complexity.

Traditional Clay Origins:
Nakumatt clay is known for its strength, mineral density, and rich earthiness. The partial roasting process gives these chunks a smoky complexity without fully removing their inner moisture, preserving a unique combination of crunch and depth. Popular among geophagy lovers for its bold sensory hit, Half Roasted Nakumatt sits between raw and fully roasted clay — offering the best of both worlds with aroma, grit-free firmness, and a flavour that evokes rain-soaked stone and sun-baked soil.

Storage Tips
To keep your clays and treats fresh, crunchy, and full of flavour, always store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from moisture, humidity, and strong odours. Exposure to air or dampness can alter both texture and taste.
We highly recommend using our stash boxes, available on the website — designed specifically to protect and organise your clay collection with ease.
Handling Guidelines
- clean, dry hands.
- wooden spoon included with your order
Fragility Disclaimer
All clay treats and terracotta pot products are handmade and naturally fragile, making them susceptible to breakage during delivery.
While we take great care in packing each item securely, minor cracks, chips, or crumbled pieces may occur. This is a natural part of working with handcrafted clays and does not affect taste or enjoyment.
To help, every order includes a wooden spoon — ideal for enjoying broken pieces or powder just as deliciously as the whole form.
