About Catechu powder Acacia catechu Powder

Katha powder (also spelled kattha or catechu) is a plant-derived astringent obtained from the heartwood of the Acacia catechu tree, a member of the legume family (Fabaceae). It is produced by extracting water-soluble compounds from the heartwood through boiling, followed by concentration, cooling, and drying of the extract.

Catechin and epicatechin (flavan-3-ols)
Catechu tannic acid (condensed tannins)
Quercetin and other flavonoids (minor amounts)
Phenolic acids
Small quantities of gums and resins

Typical composition varies with source, extraction method, and processing conditions.

Odor: Characteristic, faint woody odor
Taste: Strongly astringent
