Bhuban da,
I the US (at least in Texas) the kol we get is like jahaji, but usually we ge only one variety. The downside is they look like they have been cloned to perfection. If I am not mistaken, jahai is only available in the NE. Even the Shillongia varaiety, we used to call the Shillongia jehaji.
As far as using jehaji for drinks etc is agreat idea. Gerber has baby food (banana) also. Maybe, someone enterprising enough will also come up with manufacturing, drinks and baby food in Assam.

RamThat is another good news. Thanks Ram.'Jahaji kol' I enjoy.' There are good bananas here but not Jahaji. I visited a few banana farms somewhere in Spain where it is cultivated commercially but the bananas are small. I was told that the varieties I had in mind such as 'jahaji' are not commercially profitable. Here you've given me an example that 'jahaji' has a market. But then it is in all probability for household consumption, not for other uses (drinks etc).Bhuban
