Everything at a glance Organic black cumin seeds
It looks like black sesame but is called black cumin - even though it is not related to cumin! Black cumin must have a real identity crisis! These seeds had been grown and used in Egypt and the regions of Mesopotamia for thousands of years, and, in more recent years, have become quite popular in the rest of the world.
According to the legend, talking about these lush looking seeds, the prophet Mohamed once said: "Black cumin cures everything but death." That this is a bit of an exaggeration, is an understatement, but for sure black cumin is a nice addition to a healthy diet, tastes fantastic, and adds a unique, oriental touch to your every recipe.

Why is the price fluctuating?
Most annual product crops have an impact on the relationship between supply and demand in the market. In the event of a bad harvest, we must also pay a higher price for raw materials. Due to the strong impact of external factors such as wind, weather, climate and natural events on the harvest, we are refusing long-term cross-harvest contracts with our producers. -
Why are we communicating price changes at KoRo?
Open communication is very important to us and therefore part of our vision. For this reason, we would like to keep you informed of the evolution of our prices. Thus, the KoRo price chart provides a transparent overview of the evolution of the products prices over time.
Organic black cumin seeds - Ein Blick hinter die Kulissen
Der Echte Schwarzkümmel
Die Pflanze, an der Schwarzkümmel wächst, wird Echter Schwarzkümmel genannt. Sie wird bis zu 50 cm groß und lebt nur ein Jahr.
Reifeprozess
Während des Reifeprozesses öffnet sich die Pflanze und die Samen erblicken zum ersten Mal die Sonne. Erst durch den Kontakt mit der Sonne, entsteht die charakteristische schwarze Farbe der Samen.
Die Ernte
Die Schwarzkümmelsamen können jährlich ab Anfang September geerntet werden. Am besten wird dazu ein Auffangbehältnis genutzt, in dem die Fruchtkapseln hin und her geschüttelt werden können.
Die übrigen Bestandteile des Echten Schwarzkümmels
Abgesehen von den Samen, sollte der Rest der Pflanze gemieden werden. Blätter, Blüten und Wurzel enthalten leicht giftige Stoffe.
Und ab in die Verpackung!
Hier gibt’s keine langen Produktionsketten. Die Schwarzkümmelsamen kommen direkt vom Feld in die Verpackung!
