Jadoh Traditional Rice, Meghalaya<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Ka Kiad um & Bitchi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rice-beer (ka\u2019iad um) is a necessity for practically all Khasi and Synteng (Jaintia) religious ceremonies. It is the custom of the officiating priest to pour liberal quantities of the liquor from a hollow gourd (u klong) and offer to the gods on these occasions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitchi is a fermented rice beer brewed only in the Garo Hills. It\u2019s the colour of dull honey, and packed with a wonderful smoky, sweet flavor. It is light and has a delicious taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both the concoctions are crystal clear with tempting flavors made from locally available fruits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
