Kokum

Kokum (Garcinia indica) is the dried rind of a tropical tree fruit from the Western Ghats of India. It delivers a distinctive fruity-sour flavor with a deep purple-maroon color and mild astringency. Used as a souring and coloring agent in Konkani, Goan, and Malvani cuisines.

A specialty ingredient for authentic Indian coastal cuisine, Kokum Sherbet production (Sol Kadhi), fish curry souring agents, and emerging export to Indian diaspora markets globally.
