We don't buy ghee from an anonymous market. We partner with specific families in the Gir region of Gujarat — and we put their names on the jars they make.
The Gir forest of Gujarat gives its name to one of the world's most prized indigenous cattle breeds. Here, dairying isn't industrial — it's familial. Cows graze open scrubland at the forest's edge, are milked by hand, and are kept and loved long past their most productive years.
We chose this region not for marketing, but because the care here is real — and care is the only ingredient you can't fake.
Each of these families churns specific batches you can trace by number. Real people, real records.
