Clove – Product Summary
Cloves (Syzygium aromaticum) are aromatic flower buds known for their strong, warm, and slightly sweet flavor with a pungent, spicy aroma. Used both whole and ground, cloves are a key ingredient in culinary, pharmaceutical, perfumery, and traditional medicine industries.
India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and Madagascar are among the major producers of high-quality cloves. Indian cloves, particularly from Kerala and Tamil Nadu, are prized for their essential oil content and bold appearance.
Rich in eugenol, cloves possess powerful antiseptic, antibacterial, and analgesic properties. They are widely used in masala blends, pickles, baked goods, beverages, and in Ayurveda and Unani medicine.
At Thota Consumer products, we offer premium-grade whole cloves, carefully dried, hand-selected, and packed to preserve flavor, aroma, and shelf life. Custom grades and packing available to suit retail, wholesale, or industrial buyers.
Clove is a highly aromatic spice made from the dried flower buds of the clove tree (Syzygium aromaticum), native to the Maluku Islands (Indonesia). Known for its warm, sweet, and pungent flavor, clove is used extensively in both culinary and medicinal applications around the world.
