Our Madagascar cloves are whole, dried flower buds known for their intense warmth and deeply aromatic character. Harvested before blooming, these unopened buds concentrate the spice’s natural sweetness and pungency. Cloves have long been used to slowly infuse flavor into liquids, sauces, and braises, as well as ground fresh for baking and spice blends. They play a foundational role in many global cuisines, valued as much for structure and depth as for their unmistakable aroma.

Flavor Profile

Intensely aromatic, sweet, and warming with pronounced spicy-sweet character. Pungent, almost medicinal intensity with eugenol (same compound in dental products). Strong flavor that can easily dominate if overused.
Uses

Stud whole Madagascar cloves into ham, pork roasts, or oranges for both flavor and decoration. Add to pickling brines, mulling spices, and chai tea. Use in stocks, broths, and other slow-cooked dishes, then remove before serving. Stud into onions for classic French cooking, or simmer whole in rice pilaf and biryani. Cloves are potent, so use sparingly. When cooking with whole cloves, remove them before serving, since biting into one can cause sharp pain.
