Our Dried Apricots come from the beautiful high-altitude orchards of Kinnaur, Himachal Pradesh, where the crisp mountain air and mineral-rich soil produce apricots of exceptional sweetness and flavour. Hand-picked at perfect ripeness by local Kinnauri farmers, these apricots are naturally sun-dried using traditional Himalayan methods to preserve their bright orange hue, tangy-sweet taste, and dense nutrition. Every batch is 100% natural, free from sulphur, chemicals, or additives — a true taste of the mountains.
Culinary:
Enjoy Dried Apricots straight out of the pack as a delicious and energizing snack, or chop them into muesli, porridge, and salads. They blend beautifully into smoothies, chutneys, or baked desserts, and pair perfectly with nuts, cheese, and herbal teas. Their soft, chewy texture and natural sweetness make them ideal for both sweet and savoury recipes.
Nutritional Characteristics:
Kinnauri Dried Apricots are a powerhouse of vitamin A, iron, potassium, and dietary fibre. They help support eye health, skin glow, and heart wellness, while aiding digestion and maintaining energy levels. Naturally low in fat and high in antioxidants, these apricots are the perfect guilt-free indulgence for any time of the day.
Purity Story:
Harvested in the summer months (June–July) from Kinnaur’s pristine orchards, our apricots are hand-picked, sun-dried, and hand-sorted in small batches. The fruit is dried traditionally without added sugar or preservatives, ensuring each piece retains its authentic Himalayan flavour and vibrant colour. Our farmers’ generations-old methods ensure sustainability, purity, and taste you can trust.
