The Khasi Mandarin is a premium variety of orange grown in the hilly regions of Assam, especially in Dima Hasao, Karbi Anglong, and Cachar. It thrives in the well-drained soils and cool climate of these highlands, giving the fruit its signature sweetness, fine texture, and bright orange hue.
This orange has earned a Geographical Indication (GI) tag for its exceptional quality. The thin peel, high juice content, and balanced tang make it one of the finest mandarins in India. The fruit matures between October and February, coinciding with Assam’s winter harvest season.
The Khasi Mandarin is not just a commercial crop but also a symbol of livelihood and pride for thousands of small farmers in the region. It’s rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants, promoting immunity and good skin health.
