High-Altitude Protein Giant
Local Mountain Soybeans (लोकल भटमास)
In Nepal, soybeans (Bhatmas) are not an industrial commodity—they are an indispensable whole food deeply embedded in daily farming culture. Sourced from indigenous, non-GMO seed varieties grown across the hills, our Local Soybeans are naturally small, golden, and packed with plant protein.
Completely unpolished and free from chemical treatments, they release an incredible nutty aroma when roasted in an iron pan, making them the ultimate crunchy protein snack.
