Cloves, with their eugenol-rich oil, offer a powerful aromatic flavor. They provide a subtle relief to sweet and sugary flavors. Perfect with onions and vegetable or seafood broths. Our cloves come from Indonesia, grown near nutmeg and pepper trees on small farms. The clove tree, a tropical tree, produces flower buds harvested by hand before they bloom.
Cloves, long a rare and precious product, have been the subject of great explorations, notably by Magellan. The spice has been cultivated beyond its original territory thanks to figures like Pierre Poivre, who introduced the clove tree to Mauritius in the 18th century.
