Jaggery the way the cane belt makes it

Our gur is made from sugarcane of the Kolhapur area, crushed within hours of harvest and slow-cooked in wide open pans over a fire of its own crushed stalks. Nothing is bleached, nothing is added — which is why the colour is honest brown, not showroom gold.

Choose the form your kitchen uses: fine powder for chai and everyday cooking, coarser granules that scoop and pour like sugar, or kakvi (काकवी) — the pourable syrup drawn off the pan before it sets.

आमची पद्धत · why ours

What makes it different

No washing soda, no bleach

Market jaggery is often treated to look pale gold. Ours keeps the colour of an honest open-pan boil — a shade that varies batch to batch, as real gur does.

Whole-cane minerals kept in

Because nothing is refined out, the iron, calcium, magnesium and potassium of the cane stay in the jaggery, along with its deep caramel taste.

A fair price at the farm gate

We buy directly from cane farmers at agreed prices, and value-adding steps like granulating and bottling happen at the village level — so more of your rupee stays with the grower.

प्रश्न · good questions

Asked honestly, answered honestly

Is jaggery healthier than sugar?

Honestly: jaggery is still a sweetener, with roughly the same calories as sugar spoon for spoon. The difference is what it keeps — the minerals and flavour of the whole cane — and what it avoids: refining chemistry, bleaching and anti-caking agents. Choose it for what it is, and use it in the same moderation as any sugar.

Why does the colour vary from batch to batch?

Because we do not standardise it chemically. Cane variety, soil, season and the judgement of the gur-maker at the pan all shift the shade between golden and deep brown. Uniform pale-gold jaggery is usually the most processed jaggery on the shelf.

Which form should I buy — powder, granules or kakvi?

Powder dissolves fastest and suits chai, milk, festival cooking and anywhere a recipe asks for melted gur. Granules are coarser and free-flowing — they scoop and measure like sugar, which suits the table and the tea tin. Kakvi is the syrup stage: pourable, for bhakri, curd and anything you would otherwise drizzle.

How should I store jaggery?

In an airtight jar, away from moisture and direct sun. Jaggery is hygroscopic — it pulls water from humid air and softens — so a dry spoon and a closed lid keep it in good shape for months.

Jaggery vs sugar: an honest comparison
