Add warm spice and deep aroma to your kitchen and tea shelf with Whole Cloves, the dried flower buds of the Syzygium aromaticum tree. Known for their bold, spicy-sweet scent and rich flavor, cloves are a classic botanical spice used in teas, simmer pots, seasonal recipes, baked goods, broths, and aromatic craft blends.

Whole cloves pair beautifully with cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, orange peel, hibiscus, rose hips, and other warming botanicals. Use them whole in simmering blends or grind fresh in small amounts for spice mixes and culinary recipes.
