Nutmeg Myristica fragrans Fam: Myristicaceae The nutmeg tree is a large evergreen native to the Moluccas (the Spice Islands) and is now cultivated in the West Indies. It produces two spices — mace and nutmeg. Nutmeg is the seed kernel inside the fruit and mace is the lacy covering (aril) on the kernel. The Arabs were the exclusive importers of the spice to Europe up until 1512, when Vasco de Gama reached the Moloccas and claimed the islands for Portugal. To preserve their new monopoly, the Portuguese (and from 1602, the Dutch) restricted the trees to the islands of Banda and Amboina. The Dutch were especially cautious, since the part of the fruit used as a spice is also the seed, so that anyone with the spice could propagate it. To protect against this, the Dutch bathed the seeds in lime, which would prevent them from growing. This plan was thwarted however, by fruit pigeons who carried the fruit to other islands, before it was harvested, scattering the seeds. The Dutch sent out search and destroy crews to control the spread and when there was an abundant harvest, they even burned nutmeg to keep its supply under control. Despite these precautions, the French, led by Pierre Poivre (Peter Piper) smuggled nutmeg seeds and clove seedlings to start a plantation on the island of Mauritius, off the east coast of Africa, near Madagascar. In 1796 the British took over the Moloccas and spread the cultivation to other East Indian islands and then to the Caribbean. Nutmeg was so successful in Grenada it now calls itself the Nutmeg Island, designing its flag in the green, yellow and red colours of nutmeg and including a graphic image of nutmeg in one corner. Spice Description The nutmeg seed is encased in a mottled yellow, edible fruit, the approximate size and shape of a small peach. The fruit splits in half to reveal a net-like, bright red covering over the seed. This is the aril which is collected, dried and sold as mace. Under the aril is a dark shiny nut-like pit, and inside that is the oval shaped seed which is the nutmeg. Nutmegs are usually sold without the mace or hard shell. They are oval, about 25 mm (1 in) in length, lightly wrinkled and dark brown on the outside, lighter brown on the inside. Nutmeg is sold whole or ground, and is labeled as ‘East Indian’ or ‘West Indian’ indicating its source. Whole nutmeg may be coated with lime to protect against insects and fungus, though this practice is giving way to other forms of fumigation. Bouquet:sweet, aromatic and nutty Flavour : Nutty , warm and slightly sweet Hotness Scale: 1

Mace
The mace blades are red when they are ready for harvest. However, they take on an orange or yellowish-brown hue after being removed from the nutmeg shell and dried in the sun. The nutmeg is surrounded by two mace blades or portions. Mace is an extremely light material because it is thin and lacy. Only 3 to 4 lbs. of mace are produced for 100 lbs. of nutmeg a tree produces. The amount of essential oils in nutmeg and mace, as assessed by steam volatile oil distillation, determines their quality. The flavour and aroma will be more potent the richer the oil.

Sourced from the sunny nutmeg groves of India, our premium mace arrives ready to elevate your culinary creations. Mace is the lacy, net-like aril that surrounds the nutmeg seed. Unlike nutmeg's intense warmth, mace offers a more delicate yet complex flavor profile. Hints of citrus, pepper, and subtle sweetness dance on the palate, making it a versatile addition to both sweet and savory dishes. Hailing from the verdant landscapes of India, mace emerges as a precious spice, a captivating companion to its more famous sibling, nutmeg. Nestled within the vibrant red aril of the nutmeg fruit, mace boasts a delicate, lacy appearance, resembling a feathery net. This intricate web of threads, ranging from a light cream to a warm, golden hue, holds an aroma that is both intense and alluring. The essence of mace is a symphony of warm, peppery notes intertwined with the sweetness of nutmeg, laced with a hint of citrus and a subtle floral character. Cultivated primarily in the southern Indian states of Kerala and Tamil Nadu, Indian mace enjoys a well-deserved reputation for its exceptional quality. The journey of mace begins with the nutmeg tree, a majestic evergreen that thrives in the humid, tropical climate. Once the fruit ripens, it splits open, revealing the aril â?? the lacy covering surrounding the nutmeg seed. This aril is meticulously hand-picked at its peak maturity, ensuring the capture of its most vibrant flavor profile. The delicate threads are then carefully separated from the aril and laid out in the warm embrace of the Indian sun to dry naturally. This sun-drying process intensifies the essential oils within the mace, further enhancing its aroma and potency. Beyond its culinary prowess, Indian mace boasts a rich history deeply intertwined with the spice trade. For centuries, it has been prized for its medicinal properties. Traditional Indian medicine utilizes mace for its digestive and pain-relieving benefits. Its essential oils are also believed to possess antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. When you choose Indian mace for export, you are not just acquiring a spice; you are embracing a legacy. It represents the meticulous handwork of Indian farmers, the warmth of the tropical sun, and the rich tapestry of Indian culinary heritage. With its captivating aroma, versatile applications, and potential health benefits, Indian mace stands poised to be a star ingredient in kitchens around the world.
Mace is the nutmeg flower which can be used as a spice, or the oil from the mace can be used for further purposes. The Mace oil is helpful in relieving congestion and flatulence.
