Betel Nuts, Areca catechu and additives

Please allow up to one week for shipping this product as we harvest them fresh per order and need to dry them before shipping..

Unlike MOST companies, we offer ALL the necessary ingredients for a traditional Betel nut quid!! This includes Betel nuts (Areca catechu), the sedative Siri leaf (Pipa betel), edible lime, (hydrated calcium oxide) and Gambir spice flavoring. The lime tradionally is chewed along with the Betel nut wrapped inside a quid of Siri leaf to make the package active. Traditionally about ¼ of a whole betel nut would be put inside one leaf along with a pinch of lime and a little Gambir flavoring, the whole quid would be put into the mouth and chewed swallowing all the juices that were released.
