Lakadong turmeric is a rare, premium-quality turmeric variety grown in the Jaintia Hills district of Meghalaya, India. It is considered one of the finest in the world due to its exceptionally high curcumin content, which provides superior health benefits, a vibrant color, and a distinctive flavor.

High curcumin content
Curcumin is the active compound in turmeric responsible for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Lakadong turmeric is highly prized for its potency, containing an average of 7–12% curcumin, which is significantly higher than the 2–4% typically found in regular turmeric varieties. This high concentration makes Lakadong a potent natural supplement for wellness.
Distinctive characteristics
In addition to its high curcumin level, Lakadong turmeric is distinguished by other qualities:
  • Vibrant color: It has a rich, deep golden-yellow to orange hue.
  • Earthy aroma: The turmeric has a strong, earthy, and slightly peppery aroma.
  • Unique flavor: It offers a rich, slightly bitter flavor that is more potent than other varieties.
  • Pure and organic: It is grown using traditional and sustainable farming methods, free from chemical fertilizers and pesticides.

Culinary and medicinal uses
Because of its superior flavor and potency, Lakadong turmeric is a highly valued ingredient in both the culinary and pharmaceutical industries.
  • Cooking: A smaller quantity of Lakadong turmeric is needed to impart a rich color, potent flavor, and earthy aroma to curries, stews, and other dishes.
  • Health and wellness: It is used in golden milk (haldi doodh), immunity shots, and smoothies to leverage its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune-boosting benefits.
  • Skincare: It is also used topically in face masks for its anti-inflammatory and skin-brightening properties.
