Marayoor Jaggery
Experience the legendary taste of Marayoor Sharkara, one of the few jaggery varieties in the world to be honored with a Geographical Indication (GI) Tag. Sourced directly from the high-altitude sugarcane farms of Marayoor in the Idukki district, this jaggery is world-renowned for its distinct dark brown color, high sweetness, and absence of salty undertones. Unlike industrial sugar, every ball of Marayoor Jaggery is handcrafted by traditional farmers using age-old techniques.
