Introduction to Cloves
Cloves are the aromatic flower buds of the clove tree (Syzygium aromaticum), widely recognized for their rich, sweet, and pungent aroma. Used extensively in food, medicine, and industrial products, cloves are a key spice in global markets for their flavor and therapeutic properties.
Quality and Sourcing
Our cloves are sourced from trusted farms in India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and Madagascar. Indian cloves, especially from Kerala and Tamil Nadu, are noted for their bold size and high essential oil content. We offer export-quality whole cloves with customizable grades and packaging to meet diverse international requirements.
Physical and Sensory Properties
Cloves are small, nail-shaped buds with a reddish-brown hue. They offer a warm, sweet-spicy aroma and a slightly bitter, strong taste. High levels of eugenol contribute to their intense fragrance and medicinal properties, making them suitable for multiple uses.
Applications and Uses
Cloves are essential in spice blends such as garam masala and Chinese five-spice powder. They are widely used in pickles, biryanis, stews, teas, baked goods, and sauces. In traditional medicine, cloves help with digestion, dental care, and inflammation, while clove oil finds use in perfumery, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.

We ensure that every batch of cloves undergoes strict quality control to meet global food safety and export standards. With flexible bulk ordering, customized packaging, and consistent supply, our cloves are the ideal choice for importers, wholesalers, and industries worldwide.
