Scented rices have been known in the Indian subcontinent since the times of Charaka [600 BC] and Susruta [200 BC]. These rices have played an important role in many regional economies, and have been the favorites of kings, religious heads, royalty and the elite of society. Most of these rices are highly area specific; hence each Indian state has its own special scented rice.
