Cloves are the dried flower buds of the evergreen clove tree, which trives in the tropical climates of Indonesia. CBI produces gourmet cloves with an intact spike, which is very fragile. Our attention to detail and best-in-classs sorting practices ensure our cloves are premium, perfect for studding hams and adding flavor to stews, sauces, and desserts. Cloves have been increasingly used as a nutraceutical and contain anti-microbial, anti-viral, and anti-oxidative properties.
