It is a magnifique example of the 'Sheti' (farming) culture, where simple grains are transformed into a cooling energy booster for long days in the field. The texture is smooth and flowing, while the taste is a magnifique balance of sour buttermilk and earthy grains. Served chilled in earthen pots, it represents the rugged and honest heritage of the Maharashtrian farming communities.
