Product Description of Kottakkal Draksharishtam
Kottakkal Draksharishtam is a time-tested Ayurvedic arishtam, made primarily from succulent grapes, designed for those nagged by persistent coughs, colds and chest discomfort. It’s like a herbal wine, but without the harshness, offering a sweet-sour infusion you can sip daily. Honestly, I love this arishtam for its mellow taste and that warm feeling it brings after a long day of sniffles or seasonal chills. The fermentation process gently unlocks the grape’s essence, making it easy on the stomach and soothing to the lungs.
Use it after meals or mix with a little water—whichever you fancy. Over generations, families have kept a bottle in their cabinet, reaching for it at the first sign of phlegm build-up or general sluggishness. There’s something extraordinary about taking a teaspoonful and feeling a subtle wave of comfort unfold across your chest. You might even feel a slight buzz of energy—just enough to get you through the afternoon slump. And while modern science is still catching up, this remedy has deep roots in tradition that stretch back centuries.
It’s not just about coughs though. Many users report a gentle detox effect, as if the body’s internal pathways have been given a mini spring-cleaning. Respiratory relief, mild detox, and a sweet-tangy delight—Kottakkal Draksharishtam is a small bottle with big intentions.
