Grown in
Sirārakhong, Manipur

story_image

Legend has it that Hāthei chillis were first sighted by the Naga ancestors of Sirārakhong village in Manipur on a hunting trip many generations ago. Since then, this long, red, smoky chilli has been grown in every backyard garden.

story_image

These chillies are proudly grown by Hill Wild, a cooperative of farmers in Sirārakhong. By sharing their prized chillies with the world, they hope to champion indigenous food systems, restore biodiversity, and share the joyful food of their ancestors with the world.

story_image

Hāthei chillies come from the hills of Manipur, located in the Indo-Burma Biodiversity Hotspot. The richness of this ecosystem and the indigenous practices of the farmers are what give these chillies their incredible flavor. Many nearby villages have tried to grow the Sirārakhong Hāthei chillies, but something about the terroir of Sirārakhong produces the very best!

story_image

Hāthei chillies owe their smoky flavor to their processing: The chillies are allowed to dry on the plant for maximum flavor, and are then wood-smoked on traditional bamboo mats, adding notes of bacon and chipotle to their fruity heat.
