Cachou or Cutch (Acacia catechu) is an extract made from the wood of this tree that is native to India. The wood is chipped and boiled, the sap dissolves and becomes concentrated as the water evaporates.
When dyeing with cutch extract the dye becomes not only deeper but redder the more it is simmered.
