What is Lakadong Turmeric?
Lakadong turmeric originates from the Jaintia Hills district of Meghalaya, India, and it's often hailed as the world's best turmeric. What sets it apart is its sky-high curcumin levels, the very compound that gives turmeric its vibrant yellow hue and various health benefits.
Lakadong Turmeric powder is a beautiful bright golden-yellow color that’s easily substituted for other turmeric varieties when cooking.
Our organic Lakadong turmeric is of premium quality, with more than 8% naturally occurring curcumin in it.
