About this flavor

Pan Raas is inspired by Indian "paan", a bite made of betel leaf, areca nut, spices and sweet rose paste (gulkand). It is herbal, floral and spiced all at once.

Rose brings a sweet, perfumed note, betel leaf a green, slightly bitter one, and menthol a fresh finish.

An unusual flavor that is not for everyone, but in India and among hookah fans it is a true classic.
