Khadirarishta is a classical fermented Ayurvedic liquid (arishta) made by Virgo UAP Pharma, in which the heartwood of Khadira (Acacia catechu) is the lead dravya, paired with Devadaru and Bakuchi, Triphala and an aromatic spice group, and matured with its own naturally generated alcohol (not more than 12% v/v). In classical Ayurveda it is a Raktashodhaka (blood-purifying) and Twak (skin) preparation, traditionally described in the context of Kushtha and skin wellness. Acacia catechu and its bioactive compounds have themselves been reviewed in the modern research literature (peer-reviewed review, 2022 — Plants, MDPI).
About Khadirarishta
Khadirarishta is a classical fermented Ayurvedic tonic (arishta) in which Khadira — Acacia catechu, the heartwood also known as Katha — is the lead dravya. Manufactured by Virgo UAP Pharma and supplied by Riddhish Herbals, it follows the classical Ayurveda Sara Sangraha (A.S.S.) reference printed on the pack.
Khadira is matured with Devadaru, Bakuchi, the three Triphala fruits and a warm bouquet of Kankola, Lavanga, Jatiphala, Ela, Dalchini and Tamalapatra, with Dhataki flowers driving the fermentation. Khadira has been Ayurveda's foremost skin-and-blood herb for centuries.
Traditional Ayurvedic Importance
In classical Ayurveda, Khadira (Acacia catechu) is the leading Kushthaghna and Raktashodhaka dravya, described across the Bhavaprakasha and Ayurveda Sara Sangraha in the context of Kushtha and Twak (skin) wellness. Khadirarishta is traditionally valued for skin wellness and blood purification (Raktashodhana).
Bakuchi (Psoralea corylifolia) and Daruharidra (Berberis aristata) add to the Twak focus, while Triphala (Haritaki, Bibhitaki, Amalaki) supports gentle internal cleansing. Dhataki (Woodfordia fruticosa) is the Sandhana dravya that gives the arishta its self-generated alcohol.
