Kewra, keora or kewda is an essential oil distilled from the male flower of the fragrant screwpine. The plant is native to Tropical Asia, Southeast Asia and Australasia, and the oil is used as a flavoring agent throughout much of these regions.

The flower is a vital ingredient in Kewara and is used in special-occasion dishes in South Asia, particularly those associated with Muslim communities. Kewra flowers have a sweet, perfumed odour with a pleasant quality similar to rose flowers, but kewra is more fruity.

The aqueous distillate is quite diluted.. Kewra flowers & leaves are also essential in worship of Hindu Goddess Manasa, who is worshipped by certain Hindu communities.

Approximately 95% of total kewra flower exported from India is collected from areas surrounding Berhampur city in Ganjam district. The coastal areas of Chhatrapur, Rangeilunda, Patrapur and Chikiti are famous for their aromatic pandanus plantations.

Male kewra flowers have rose-like sweet and fruity fragrance. Only the male flowers are used to extract fragrance.

Extremely tenacious and potent. A little goes a long way.

This is 100% pure oil extracted from male kewra flowers. It takes about 1,000 flowers (370 pounds) to produce one ounce of Kewra Ruh. In Ayurveda, the oil is used as a stimulant, and to treat rheumatoid arthritis.
