Pilgrimage for Mongtsee

Kalimpong hills

We walked down the hill along a small path for an hour to reach local famers.
On our path we met working people on the land and on the side there was this
big bamboo flask with a bamboo straw and a theepot. Reaching the farm we were
invited to taste the local spiritual drink that they called Mongtsee. Hot water
was poored over millet, here called ragi, and after a few minutes they served
the bamboo flask with the bamboo straw to sip this marvellous drink.
