Collection: Black Mustard (Brassica Nigra) – Seed, Extracts, Oils & Powders

Wholesale Black Mustard in every format your formulation needs — sourced, processed, and shipped to Canada by TheWholesalerCo.

Black Mustard (Brassica nigra), one of the oldest cultivated spices in the world, is a cornerstone ingredient across culinary, nutraceutical, and cosmetic applications — prized for its pungent glucosinolate fraction (particularly sinigrin), its allyl isothiocyanate-rich essential oil, and a fatty acid profile that makes its cold-pressed oil a staple in South Asian kitchens and classical Ayurvedic therapies. Whether you're developing a premium culinary oil, a warming massage blend, a natural preservative system, or a specialty nutraceutical, TheWholesalerCo offers Black Mustard in every format the modern formulator needs — from whole seeds to supercritical CO2 extracts.

Shop Black Mustard by Form

Whole Black Mustard (Seed)

Cleaned, graded, sun-dried Brassica nigra seeds — small, round, and intensely pungent. The preferred raw material for buyers who want to process in-house, prepare classical Ayurvedic formulations, run cold-pressing operations, or maintain full control over milling and extraction. Ideal for oil pressers, spice houses, contract manufacturers, and extractors working directly from source material.

Black Mustard Herbal Powder

Finely milled whole-seed powder (mustard flour), mesh-graded to your specification. A workhorse ingredient for culinary applications, condiment and sauce manufacturing, poultices, classical Ayurvedic lepa formulations, and specialty nutraceuticals. Shelf-stable, cost-effective, and the simplest way to deliver the plant's full glucosinolate and myrosinase enzyme system in a single ingredient — critical for the characteristic pungency to develop on hydration.

Black Mustard Solvent-Based Extract

Concentrated powdered extract produced with food-grade solvents. Available in standardized ratios and, on request, standardized to total glucosinolates or sinigrin content. The go-to form for specialty nutraceutical brands, natural preservative formulators, and researchers working with mustard's unique isothiocyanate fraction where assay values and dosage accuracy matter.

Black Mustard CO2 Extract

Supercritical CO2 extraction delivers a solvent-free, highly concentrated extract that preserves the full spectrum of heat-sensitive volatiles, glucosinolates, and native phytochemistry. The premium choice for clean-label specialty supplements, natural food preservation systems, and brands marketing "green extraction" on the front of the pack.

Black Mustard Oil (Cold-Pressed Culinary Grade)

Cold-pressed from whole Brassica nigra seeds, this pungent, deep golden-brown oil is a cornerstone of Bengali, Bihari, and Oriya cuisine, and a staple in classical Ayurvedic abhyanga and warming body therapies. Rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, with the characteristic sharp aroma of allyl isothiocyanate. Available in culinary, cosmetic, and Ayurvedic grades on request.

Black Mustard Essential Oil

True Brassica nigra essential oil, produced by steam distillation of macerated seeds, is one of the most pungent and potent essential oils in the world — dominated by allyl isothiocyanate. A specialty ingredient used in strictly controlled dosages for warming liniments, counterirritant formulations, and niche industrial applications. This is a highly concentrated, skin-irritating material — supplied for professional formulators only, with full safety documentation and handling guidance.

Black Mustard Oil (Classical Taila)

Prepared in line with Ayurvedic texts — mustard decoction or whole seeds cooked into a base oil until the water phase evaporates, or herbal decoctions cooked into cold-pressed mustard oil. Traditionally used in warming massage oils, joint therapy blends, and classical abhyanga formulations. Ideal for premium Ayurvedic brands building on traditional Sarson ka Tel therapies.

Black Mustard Infused Oil

Whole seeds slowly infused into a carrier oil (sesame, coconut, or custom base on request). A label-friendly option for brands building "infused in" narratives without the intensity of cold-pressed mustard oil or the potency of the essential oil. Popular in warming body oils, scalp oils, and specialty topical blends.

Black Mustard Oil-Soluble Extract

A lipophilic extract designed to disperse cleanly into oils, balms, butters, and anhydrous cosmetic systems. If you're formulating a warming muscle balm, a counterirritant rub, or an anhydrous system where you want mustard's hero actives in a controlled, ready-to-blend format, this is the form to choose.

Black Mustard PG Extract (Propylene Glycol)

A liquid extract in a propylene glycol base — pre-solubilized and ready to blend into topical sprays, warming roll-ons, scalp tonics, and water-based cosmetic systems. Saves formulation time and delivers controlled, uniform active distribution across aqueous and surfactant phases.

Black Mustard Glycerine Extract

A liquid extract in vegetable glycerine — the clean-label, paraben-free, PG-free alternative. Suited to gentler natural formulations where a mild humectant carrier is a formulation bonus and where the intensity of cold-pressed or essential oil forms would be excessive.
