Mysuru Betel leaf

 A Special cover was released on the Mysuru Betel leaf on 20th March 2022 at Bengaluru.

Mysuru betel leaf is being cultivated from the period of Maharajas of Mysuru in palace gardens as well as in villages surrounding Mysuru taluk. These leaves are heart shaped and texture of the leaves is very smooth. The presence of black clay soil with moderate rainfall and temperature makes Mysuru betel leaf unique to that particular locality.
