The Assam Lemon, locally known as Kaji Nemu, is one of Assam’s most famous and distinctive citrus fruits. Recognized with a Geographical Indication (GI) tag, it is celebrated for its refreshing aroma, thin glossy skin, and high juice content. Unlike the common lemon, Kaji Nemu has a milder acidity and a pleasant, slightly sweet tang, making it perfect for both culinary and medicinal use.
Cultivated across the Kamrup, Nalbari, Dibrugarh, and Sonitpur districts, this lemon thrives in Assam’s humid subtropical climate. It is a staple in Assamese households—used to flavor curries, salads, teas, and traditional beverages. Beyond the kitchen, Assam Lemon is prized for its digestive, detoxifying, and immunity-boosting properties.
