Allspice

Allspice is derived from the dried berries of the Pimenta dioica plant. Ours, sourced from Madagascar is of the highest quality and fair trade. Despite its name, allspice is not a blend of different spices, but rather a single spice with a complex flavor profile. It is called allspice because its flavor is said to resemble a combination of cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.

Allspice has a warm, spicy, and slightly sweet taste, with a pungent and aromatic aroma. It is a versatile spice that can be used in both sweet and savory dishes. Allspice is commonly used in baking, particularly in desserts such as cakes, pies, and cookies. It is also used to flavor meat dishes, stews, and soups, as well as pickles and marinades.
