Lakadong Turmeric Powder
6.5–8.5% curcumin, from the Jaintia Hills of Meghalaya.
Lakadong is India's high-curcumin turmeric: grown around Lakadong village in Meghalaya's Jaintia Hills, and protected by a Geographical Indication registration (No. 741, 2024). The supplier's report on this crop puts it at 6.5–8.5% curcumin. We procure it directly from hill farmers in the North-East, sun-dried and ground whole. Deep gold in colour and strong in aroma, it is traditionally valued for its immunity-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties — in haldi doodh, in kadha, or anywhere you want turmeric to carry real weight.

Why this Lakadong Turmeric Powder earns its place
नैसर्गिक लाभ · natural goodness
Curcumin you can put a number on
Most turmeric is sold without a curcumin figure at all. Ours carries one: 6.5–8.5%, supported by the supplier's report on this crop, grown around one village in Meghalaya's Jaintia Hills and recognised with its own GI registration in 2024. A number backed by a report is worth more than a comparison backed by nothing.
- 6.5–8.5% curcumin, supported by the supplier's crop report
- GI Reg. No. 741 (2024) protects what Lakadong means
- Deep gold colour and strong aroma with no polishing or dye
आयुर्वेद · the ayurvedic view
Old wisdom, stronger raw material
Everything Ayurveda says of haridra — warming, purifying, a daily protector — assumes potent turmeric, and Lakadong is traditionally valued for exactly that: immunity-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties. Tradition also pairs haldi with fat and black pepper, and modern understanding agrees: curcumin absorbs best with both.
- Take it the traditional way: warmed in milk or bloomed in ghee
- A pinch of black pepper helps the body absorb curcumin
- Strong in colour and aroma — start small and adjust to taste
रोजच्या वापरात · every day
For the cup, not just the curry
Use Lakadong where turmeric is the point: haldi doodh before bed, a golden paste for kadha, the morning turmeric-honey spoon. It cooks beautifully too — but most families keep this jar for the cup and the Sangli jar for the phodni.
