Organic Nutmeg, ground
Organic products are cultivated and harvested with particular care and are synonymous with the gentle use of the landscape and raw materials as well as the highest quality.
Nutmeg came from the Moluccas to Europe in the 9th century. In addition to pepper and cinnamon, nutmeg and mace were among the most popular spices in the Middle Ages and consumed in large quantities. Today, Indonesia is the world’s most important producer of nutmeg and mace. Good nutmegs are heavy, oily and strongly fragrant, taste spicy, woody, fruity and with a hint of eucalyptus and clove. As a basic rule, the higher the content of essential oils, the better the taste. In addition, nutmeg is considered antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and mood-boosting.
