At Sikora, we believe the best things don't need to be complicated. They begin with good soil, clean ingredients, responsible farming and the people who care for them.

Nestled beneath the sacred peaks of Mount Khangchendzonga, our harvests are shaped by mountain mist, glacial runoff, and centuries of indigenous agrarian wisdom. We work directly with smallholder farmers across Sikkim to safeguard heirloom seeds and ensure every pod, leaf, and drop of honey remains completely unadulterated.

Traditional Practice:Mycorrhizal fungal networks remain completely intact, allowing roots to pull deep mineral nourishment that industrial soils cannot replicate.
Geographical Terroir

Pemba Lepcha
34 Years Stewarding

Dzongu, North Sikkim

Pemba Lepcha

Guardian of the Alder Forest & Master Cardamom Grower

“When you walk into our forests, you don't hear machines. You hear the stream, the birds, and the rustle of cardamom leaves. That quietness is inside every pod.”

Born in the sacred valleys of Dzongu, Pemba inherited three hectares of agroforestry hillside from his grandfather. Rather than clearing trees for monoculture, he nurtures the delicate balance between native Himalayan alders and large black cardamom bushes. He cures each harvest over slow oak smoke in the traditional stone kiln built by his family seventy years ago.

Doma Bhutia

Master Tea Plucker & Cooperative Lead

“We pluck only between 6 AM and 9 AM when the dew is still evaporating from the bud. You cannot rush nature if you want tea that sings of the mountains.”

Doma leads a cooperative of 45 women pluckers on the mist-draped terraces of Temi. Her hands can evaluate the moisture, maturity, and fragrance of a spring tea shoot in a fraction of a second. Under her leadership, the cooperative transitioned completely away from synthetic pesticides twenty years ago, proving to the world that Sikkim could lead global organic agriculture.

Tenzing Sherpa
28 Years Stewarding

Yuksom, West Sikkim

Tenzing Sherpa

High Altitude Wild Beekeeper & Forager

“The bees teach us moderation. We never take more than the cliff can spare, and we always leave the nursery combs untouched.”

Tenzing operates at the boundary between human habitation and the untouched wilderness of Khangchendzonga Biosphere. Using traditional hemp rope ladders and smoking bundles of dried mountain mugwort, he works with native rock bee colonies on granite cliffs. His honey carries the rare medicinal terroir of high-altitude alpine rhododendrons and wild mountain thyme.

Karma Choden
19 Years Stewarding

Ravangla, South Sikkim

Karma Choden

Seed Saver & Fermentation Artisan

“The Dalle chili is small, but its spirit is as fierce and warm as our mountain hearths on a snowy evening.”

Karma maintains an heirloom seed bank in her village near Ravangla, ensuring indigenous chili varieties aren't displaced by hybrid varieties. Every winter, after the cherry peppers are harvested and washed in mountain spring water, she ferments them in stone crocks using cold-pressed mustard oil and wild timur pepper according to recipes passed down from her great-grandmother.
