Seven to eight years after planting, the nutmeg tree produces its first fruits, under whose flesh the nutmegs are hidden. The nutmegs in this jar come from Sri Lanka. They have a high proportion of essential oils and are correspondingly intensely spicy with a warm, resinous-balsamic aroma. They are whole nutmegs in commercial grade 80/85 (80 to 85 pieces per English pound) - each of them weighs around 6 grams.

Until just a few decades ago, the spice trade classified its precious products in a wide variety of ways based on origin and quality grades. We uphold this tradition and offer authentic origins and the finest qualities—not only in terms of the products themselves, but also in terms of testing, processing, and storage. Behind this are producers who have been dedicated to their spices for generations, as well as enthusiasts who have only been passionately pursuing their calling for a few years. All of our spices are gently dried immediately after harvest, which ensures that the flavor-bearing compounds are preserved as effectively as possible. You’ll notice the decisive difference in aromatic finesse and flavor intensity.
