Patali Gur is the treasured, solidified form of the exquisite Nolen Gur (Date Palm Jaggery). While Nolen Gur is the fragrant liquid, Patali Gur is the perfectly condensed, dark brown block—a dense expression of winter's finest sweetness and the ideal form for storage, cooking, and consumption.
Â
Patali Gur is created by further slow-boiling the date palm sap until it reaches a solid, fudgy consistency, which is then poured into traditional molds to set. This process concentrates the unique, earthy, and intense caramel flavor that Bengal is famous for.
Intense Flavor Profile: Offers a deeper, more robust, and highly concentrated caramel-molasses flavor compared to its liquid counterpart.
Ideal Texture: The block is firm yet soft, designed to be easily shaved, grated, or melted, offering a delightful "melt-in-your-mouth" experience when eaten plain.
Â
Seasonal Excellence: Like Nolen Gur, Patali Gur is a seasonal delicacy, available only when the cold temperatures allow for the finest sap extraction from the date palm trees
