Details
Product Overview:
Red Nakumatt Sticks deliver a rich and bold geophagic experience in a convenient, finger-length form. Crafted from finely powdered red Nakumatt clay, these slender, reddish-brown sticks are firm and smooth with a satisfyingly crisp snap. Despite their dense structure, they melt down into a silky paste with zero grit, offering a surprisingly clean finish.
The flavour profile is deeply earthy and cementy, with the signature topsoil and roasted undertones Nakumatt is known for. Subtle metallic notes and a whisper of petrichor emerge when wet — evoking the scent of rain on dry clay walls. These sticks are chewy, crunchy, and texturally complex — not recommended for sensitive teeth, but a treat for seasoned clay lovers who appreciate robust clay textures and tastes.

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.
