Ancient Kandahar Legacy

For over 2,000 years, Afghanistan's Kandahar province has been renowned for producing the world's finest golden raisins. The region's unique combination of high altitude, intense sunlight, and ancient qanats (underground irrigation channels) creates perfect conditions for cultivating grapes with exceptional sweetness and golden color. These same vineyards once supplied the courts of Persian kings and Silk Road traders who considered Kandahar raisins worth their weight in gold.
