The full story

About this product

Khamtey Zaw is made by dry-roasting local rice until each grain puffs and turns golden. A timeless highland snack from Goenshari, it carries the toasty aroma of hearth-fired preparation.

Key benefits

  • Light, low-fat snack suitable for all ages
  • Naturally gluten-free whole grain
  • Provides sustained energy from complex carbohydrates
  • No added oil, salt, or preservatives

How to enjoy

Eat straight from the pack, mix with putka honey and butter tea, sprinkle over yogurt, or combine with roasted maize for a traditional trail mix. Can also be soaked briefly in milk for a quick breakfast.

Storage

Keep in a sealed bag away from moisture — humidity will soften the crunch.
