Clove is an aromatic flower bud that originates from the Maluku islands in Indonesia. It is a widely common spice and commercially harvested in Bangladesh, India, Indonesia and Sri Lanka. Clove is available throughout the year and is a key ingredient in a number of different Asian cuisines. Organic Way sources its certified organic Clove Cut & Sifted direct from small-scale farm co-ops in Sri Lanka. If you like this spice’s unique flavour, you may also enjoy our organic Cloves Whole. Our cut and sifted Clove means that the spice is not sold in whole form, but rather "cut" into smaller pieces and then "sifted" to remove the small pieces and dust that result from the cutting process." COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: Sri Lanka DID YOU KNOW? Cloves can be used to reduce headaches quickly and effectively.
