The reason I ordered this is I was stationed over in India for a period of time. I could not find my American chewing tobacco so I started using what they had locally. I love the smell and the taste, but after doing research, found out that it is not very health friendly. So I began to seek out a tobacco and betel nut free similar product that I could enjoy and love without worrying about the ill health effects. I ordered this because after a lot of research it seemed like it might be the closest thing. It is absolutely incredible. The quality is perfect. The smell and the taste is amazing. The function is amazing. It taste delicious and is an excellent replacement. This one kinda gives me a cherry fruit kind of feel but I love it 10 out of 10 recommend

The freshness of the betel leaves, coupled with the rich fillings, strikes an impeccable balance between sweet and zesty. It's evident that high-quality ingredients are used, from the glistening cherries to the finely ground spices, and every bite takes me on a culinary journey to the heart of Banarasi culture. The meticulous preparation is a testament to the authenticity of the product. The paan is neither too moist nor too dry, maintaining the integrity of the leaf and the fillings throughout consumption. It’s refreshing after a meal and works wonderfully as a natural mouth freshener. I must commend the packaging as well, which ensures the paan retains its shape and flavor until it reaches you, regardless of the distance. It's a pleasure to both receive and serve as a special treat to guests or to enjoy a piece of tradition on your own. In conclusion, if you're seeking to experience the true essence of Banaras through its iconic paan, this offering will not disappoint. It’s a delightful end to any meal and a must-try for those who appreciate the finer nuances of Indian gastronomy.

Nice fresh taste and neatly packed

I’m into my third can and I find this product very much to my liking. Unfortunately, in the latest order, I found a long human hair. This is something that has got me wondering about the quality control of the product. I am not looking for a refund or a replacement.

I have enjoyed different types of paan before so this wasn’t my first time. I love the taste of fennel seeds and rose flavors. The initial taste is a bit strong and on the potpourri, flowery side, but it was interesting so I kept chewing and swallowed the pan. It took about 15 to 30 minutes before I began not feeling very well with both nausea and tiredness. I also began having an overwhelmingly strong flavor of perfume or flowers in my mouth that was not pleasant. I brushed my teeth to see if that would help but it didn’t. Over an hour later, I could just smell that sick flowery odor every time that I breathed in. It became overwhelming and too much. It’s way too strong. Avoid!!

I bought the calcultta meetha kind. It was delicious!

Authentic taste of paan. The quality of the ingredients helps make this a great product. Packaging is strange where the details indicate 2 boxes and sometimes they send just one, but I am not sure whose fault that is.

Very tasty and good quality product. Was little hesitant when buying but satisfied with the taste!

Found metallic pin (iron piece) in pack.
