Ajika or adjika (Georgian: აჯიკა) is a Georgian spicy, subtly flavored sauce or dip, often used to flavor food.^[1] In 2018, ajika was included on the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Georgia list. It originates from the Samegrelo and Abkhazia regions in the western part of Georgia.^[2]

Common varieties of ajika resemble Italian red pesto in appearance and consistency. Though it is usually red, green ajika is also made with unripe peppers.
