Where does it come from?The nutmeg tree was first discovered on the Moluccas Islands of Indonesia. The Moluccas Islands are aptly referred to as The Spice Islands due to their abundance of spice-growing and producing plants and trees. Since its initial discovery, the nutmeg tree can now be found throughout tropical areas including Sri Lanka, South America, and some areas of the Caribbean – predominantly Grenada, where nutmeg is their national symbol, proudly printed on the country’s flag.What does it taste like?With a warm, citrus-like, sweet, and spicy flavour, Mace has a similar yet milder taste to nutmeg. Its delicate aroma makes it ideal for seafood and fish dishes, as well as sweet new-season veg, and chicken.

Product Description
Derived from the tropical nutmeg tree, also referred to as Myristica fragrans, Mace is the lace-like red membrane, also referred to as the aril, that encases the outside of the nutmeg seed. Once ripe, the fruit falls from the tree and splits open revealing the aril and seed. To harvest, the aril is removed carefully from the outside, flattened, and left out to dry for up to two weeks – thus Mace is created. The seed inside is Mace's more-well-known family member – Nutmeg. Like Nutmeg, Mace is used in both dried whole pieces and as a dried ground powder.
