The Harvesting Ritual:

The harvesting of Rose Indica flowers is a labor-intensive process that begins at the break of dawn. Farmers, accompanied by their families, delicately pluck the blossoms and place them in bags moistened with water. These precious flowers are then transported to the distillery, where a rewarding journey awaits the farmers.

Time-Honored Distillation Method:

At the heart of the distillation process lies the traditional deg bhapka method, a technique passed down through generations. Copper pots, known as “degs,” are filled with rose petals, sealed with a mixture of cotton and clay, and connected to a copper receiver called “Bhapka” and a water tank through a bamboo pipe. This intricate setup allows for the collection and condensation of the precious distillate.

This liquid is then carefully transferred to an empty copper pot for further distillation, where the extraction of the revered attar takes place. This complex process demands the expertise of skilled laborers who possess deep knowledge of distillation techniques.
