Not illustrated. 1868 Excerpt: ...did not give satisfaction; but this was very probably owing to bad corking. The Kussowlie beer was full bodied and very good; specimens were sent to the Chemical Examiner to determine the proportion of alcohol. The Most Extensive Sub-class was that containing saccharine products. The manufactures in sugar in several parts of the Punjab are extensive; and the exports, especially to the south-east, are considerable.

There was also a fine large flat plate or disc of crystallized sugar from Lahore, it is called 'tavi" sugar, from the large iron pan (tavi) in which crystallization goes on; this form of sugar when broken into lump is that commonly used for household purposes.
