Pemba Cloves are hand-picked by partner farmers on the small island of Pemba, in the Zanzibar Archipelago, famous for its cloves. Picking them at the last possible moment before flowering ensures the largest size and most mature flavor. They are bright pink when ripe, and turn brown drying in the tropical sun. Their flavor features a bright, sweet intensity with rich warmth and a numbing menthol buzz. Use them whole to flavor braising liquids and mulled wine, to season riche or a biryani dish, make a decorative, flavorful studding for a roast or grind for desserts.
