Cloves

Cloves are a potent, aromatic spice derived from the unopened, sun-dried flower buds of the Syzygium aromaticum evergreen tree. Averaging about 1 centimeter in length, these reddish-brown, nail-shaped spikes feature a small bulbous head a distinctive form that gave them their name, derived from the Latin clavus (nail). Renowned for their warm, intensely sweet, and slightly bitter flavor, cloves are a cornerstone of both culinary dishes and traditional medicine worldwide.
