Atingba (Meitei rice beer) and yu (its distillate)
Atingba is the rice beer of the Meitei of Manipur, made with powdered hamei, a flat starter cake of rice and yangli bark. The rice ferments for three to six days in the sun, in a pot or a leaf-lined basket, and the sweet or bitter beer is strained off. Some of it is distilled into a clear spirit called yu.

At a glance
Atingba is the rice beer of the Meitei of Manipur, made with powdered hamei, a flat starter cake of rice and yangli bark. The rice ferments for three to six days in the sun, in a pot or a leaf-lined basket, and the sweet or bitter beer is strained off. Some of it is distilled into a clear spirit called yu. Made in 6 steps over 5 days – 9 days. The longest step, ferment in the sun, takes 3–6 days (Singh P.K 2006). Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Aspergillus niger does most of the fermenting.
Atingba uses hamei, a starter cake made with yangli (Albizia myriophylla) bark, and the fermenting rice is set out in direct sun. It is strained at the sweet or bitter stage, before it sours.
The Meitei and Kabui of Manipur have used atingba in ceremonial rituals for many generations, and value it for treating ailments (Huidrom et al. 2024).
