Panneer Rose (New Packaging)

These magenta-hued Panneer Rose petals, also known as Damask Rose, are organically grown on a small farm led by Parvathi Menon in Denkanikottai, Tamil Nadu in southern India. These whole rose petals are fragrant with floral and fruity notes that are reminiscent of lychee and nectarine. Cultivating these ultra-delicate roses without the use of pesticides is no small feat, taking these farmers two years to perfect. In order to not damage the flower, Menon and her team also developed a unique solar-powered dehydration process that gently locks in the rose’s color and aromas while it's in full bloom. 

Sana Javeri Kadri, founder of Diaspora Co., is changing the way the supply chain works in the spice industry. Her goal is to put money, equity and power back into the hands of the farmers by cutting out the middle man and decolonizing the commodity spice trading system.

The bright pink Panneer Rose petals make an eye-catching garnish for cakes and cookies as well as savory dishes. The petals can also be steeped as a tea or infused in deserts.
