Why this one is bare
One ingredient — Lakadong turmeric. No rice flour, no metanil yellow, no bulking agents.
Naturally high curcumin from the variety itself, not from additives.
The valley it's grown in is on the pack. So is the batch test.
Most turmeric on Indian shelves is a commodity blend — low curcumin, often cut with starch or dye to fake the colour. Lakadong is a different thing entirely: a specific variety from one corner of Meghalaya, prized for naturally high curcumin and a deep, honest gold.
We source it single-origin, sun-dry it, stone-mill it, and put it in a bag with exactly one thing inside. Use it in your dal, your milk, your sabzi — the way turmeric was always meant to taste.
