Pan masala is a flavourful mixture made from a combination of spices, crushed areca nuts, slaked lime, catechu, and various flavourings. It includes ingredients like fennel seeds, saffron, rose essence, cardamom, sandalwood oil and clove which contribute to its pleasant fragrance. Typically, it is served as a mouth freshener after meals to provide a cooling sensation while assisting in the digestion of spicy food. Packaged in sachets and tin containers, pan masala is designed to preserve its fragrance and taste over an extended period. Due to its affordability and easy availability, pan masala is widely consumed in both rural and urban areas of India.
