Malayar Raisins are one of the most popular varieties of Indian raisins, known for their sweet flavor, chewy texture, and brownish to dark amber color. They are made by drying Malayar grapes, primarily cultivated in the regions of Maharashtra and Karnataka. Unlike golden raisins that are treated with sulfur dioxide, Malayar raisins are sun-dried naturally, giving them a more traditional and robust taste profile.

These raisins are medium to large in size, with a wrinkled surface and naturally high sugar content. Their unique combination of taste, color, and aroma makes them ideal for use in cooking, baking, snacking, and as an ingredient in cereals, trail mixes, and sweets.

Malayar raisins are rich in natural sugars (fructose and glucose), providing a quick energy boost, making them perfect for athletes and active individuals. They are also a good source of dietary fiber, iron, potassium, antioxidants, and other vital nutrients, supporting digestive health, immunity, and heart health.
