From the ponds of Mithila, to your home.

Three things have always marked home in Mithila — the pond, the fish, and the makhana. We grew up with all three, and now we bring one of them to yours.

Pond. Fish. Makhana.

In Mithila, that's the old saying — pokhari, machh, makhaan. The pond, the fish, the fox nut. It's been that way for generations, long before anyone called makhana a "superfood."

We didn't invent this crop. We grew up around it — watching it harvested from village ponds each monsoon, hand-popped over open flame, sorted by hand for size and whiteness. That's still how it's done, and it's still where ours comes from.

Every batch starts with farmers we've worked with for years. Nothing is mass-fried or flavour-coated to cover shortcuts — just makhana and dry fruits, roasted slow, packed fresh, and sent out the way we'd want to receive them ourselves.

A note on authenticity

In 2022, Mithila Makhana received an official Geographical Indication (GI) tag — legal recognition that makhana grown in this region is genuinely distinct, and can't be labelled "Mithila Makhana" from anywhere else. It's not a claim we're making up. It's on record.

"I started this because the makhana I grew up eating tasted nothing like what's sold in most shops today. I wanted people outside Mithila to taste the real thing — not a version of it." — Nitin Raj (Founder)

No preservatives. Just makhana and dry fruits, roasted and packed.

Farm-direct sourcing from growers across the Mithila belt.

Small batches, roasted the traditional way — not mass-fried.

Family-run. We pack and check every order ourselves.
