Clove cigarettes, also known as kreteks, are a type of tobacco product that originated in Indonesia. They are made from a blend of tobacco, cloves, and other flavorings. The clove flavor is derived from the dried flower buds of the clove tree. Clove cigarettes are popular in many parts of the world, particularly in Southeast Asia. They are often smoked for their unique flavor and aroma. Clove cigarettes are often seen as a healthier alternative to traditional cigarettes, as they contain less nicotine and tar. However, they still contain many of the same harmful chemicals found in regular cigarettes. As such, they are not recommended for long-term use.
