Cloves
Description
- Cloves are the dried flower buds of the Syzygium aromaticum tree and are prized for their intense aroma, sharp taste, and powerful medicinal qualities. With a warm, slightly sweet, and peppery profile, cloves are used in cuisines, health products, and cosmetics across the world.
- We offer high-quality cloves in both whole bud and fine powder form. Whole cloves are widely used in pickles, spice blends, and herbal teas, while powdered cloves are ideal for baking, sauces, spice mixes, and pharmaceutical formulations.
- Harvested from the spice-growing regions of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and parts of Karnataka, our cloves are carefully dried, cleaned, and sorted to ensure high essential oil content, uniform color, and rich aroma—meeting global food safety and quality standards.
