From India's monsoon plains — Rajasthan, Karnataka, Kerala, Gujarat — come pumpkin seeds (semillas de calabaza), cashews and spices. Ingredients that have followed the country's poetry for millennia.

History

From the Indus Valley cities (3300 BC), through the Vedas and Upanishads, the Mauryan empire under Ashoka, the Mughal empire with the Taj Mahal, British Raj, Gandhi's freedom struggle, to today's most populous democracy — Indian agriculture is woven into the nation's soul.

Lifestyle

Color, scent, sound. A civilization where the meal is a daily ritual, every spice has meaning, and hospitality is sacred (atithi devo bhava — the guest is god).

Gastronomy

Curry in a thousand variations, dal as everyday comfort, biryani for celebration, chai binding the day together, dosa for breakfast. Pumpkin seeds and cashews appear in mithai (sweets), chutneys, daily food and festival feasts.

The people & families

Extended families eating with their hands from a shared thali, women threshing pumpkin seeds in the village shade, children playing among cashew trees. Diwali nights of light, sweets and nuts — endless hospitality.

Landscapes & farms

Pumpkin fields in Rajasthan, cashew groves in Kerala and Goa, spice gardens in the hills of Munnar, monsoon clouds rolling in over the Western Ghats. A subcontinent of extreme landscapes from snowfields to tropical coasts.

Arts, music & literature

Tagore (Asia's first Nobel 1913), Premchand, R.K. Narayan with his Malgudi, Arundhati Roy, Salman Rushdie. Ravi Shankar and the sitar's raga, Bollywood and its song-and-dance traditions, Satyajit Ray's films. Kerala's backwaters and Himalayan foothills echo in the flavor.

Our partnership

We buy through women's cooperatives in Karnataka and Kerala that pay producers directly without middlemen. Tradition and fairness in the same contract.

The journey to you

Sea freight from Mumbai or Kochi via the Arabian Sea, Suez Canal and Mediterranean to Gothenburg — the ingredients travel with the monsoon winds.
