Description

Mother Clove (Eugenia caryophyllata), known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Mǔ Dīng Xiāng (母丁香), is the dried, unripe fruit of the clove tree, a revered aromatic food herb and spice. While the more familiar clove bud is called Gōng Dīng Xiāng (公丁香), Mother Clove is its fuller, rounder counterpart, prized for centuries as a warming, aromatic herb used to support digestion, disperse cold, and harmonize the middle burner. Its nature is pungent and warm, making it a gentle yet penetrating spice for daily culinary and wellness use.

Quality & Sensory

Each batch is carefully dried to preserve its deep reddish-brown color, plump rounded form, and rich, warm aroma. The fruits feel firm and slightly oily to the touch, releasing a strong, sweet-spicy fragrance when crushed. When simmered or steeped, Mother Clove yields a warm, pungent, subtly sweet infusion with a lingering aromatic finish that perfumes broths, teas, and spice blends.
