Clove Tempest – 1 kg Whole Cloves
$59.95
Brace for the storm that fits in your palm. That’s Clove Tempest. These dark, nail-shaped buds are hand-plucked from centuries-old clove trees on the volcanic slopes of Zanzibar, where the Indian Ocean crashes against black-sand beaches and the air tastes of salt and spice. Harvested just before the buds open, sun-dried on woven mats under equatorial thunderclouds, each clove detonates a sweet-smoky lightning bolt of eugenol that numbs the tongue and warms the soul. No stems, no cracks – just perfect, storm-charged torpedoes.
Stud one into an orange for mulled wine, grind into pumpkin pie, or simmer in pho. This clove is the captain of chaos, steering every recipe into uncharted deliciousness.
