NEW DELHI, India – Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday said that Indian post department is releasing a stamp with Coffee flavour soon. “Coffee flavoured stamp will be released by India Post on April 23,” Sitharaman tweeted.

The stamps, which are being printed at the India Security Press, will be priced at Rs 100. Already, 100,000 stamps have been printed for sale to collectors.

These stamps will be made available at the Philately Bureau, Bangalore General Post Office, and all other head post offices.

Bhutan was the first country to release aromatic stamps in 1973. New Zealand, Thailand and Switzerland joined in later.

In 2006, India introduced its first aromatic stamp, with a Rs. 15 sandalwood-scented stamp, sold out within two weeks.

In 2007, rose-scented stamps were released in four varieties of flower- Jawahar, Neelam, Delhi Princess and Bhim- each priced at five bucks and a jasmine fragrance in 2008.
