The Mandalorian soldier Kal Skirata enjoyed both the smell of varos, and the blend of tihaar that could be distilled from the fruit. Due to their growth in Mandalore's tropic region, Skirata viewed finding varos-distilled tihaar in the northern reaches of the planet to be a rare treat.
Varos fruit was first introduced to the Star Wars universe via a mention in Imperial Commando: 501st, the fifth entry into the Republic and Imperial Commando series of novels authored by Karen Traviss, published October 27, 2009.
