An electrode material for a nonaqueous electrolyte battery of the present embodiment includes a composite particle containing a carbonaceous material. A peak half-width of d-band measured from a Raman spectrum of the carbonaceous material is at 150 cm−1 or more. A ratio Lc/La of a crystallite size Lc in a c-axis direction observed at 20° to 26° in a X-ray diffraction to a crystallite size La in an a-axis direction observed at 40° to 44° is 0.7 or less.
