Bringing you exotic spirits from the foothills of Mount Everest

Rakshi is Nepal’s ancestral spirit — bold, warming, and revered by generations of Gurkha soldiers. Distilled from native finger millet and shared in the Himalayan cold, it’s more than a drink — it’s a quiet ritual of strength, identity, and belonging.

Since joining the British Army in 1815, Gurkhas have been known to favour Rakshi over rationed foreign spirits — a cultural loyalty that British officers noted with intrigue. It’s a small, enduring symbol of heritage — proof that Rakshi has been more than just a drink for centuries.

At Kodoko, we honour this legacy — reimagining Rakshi with modern craftsmanship while preserving its soul.
