 Profile -
Clove is a slender
evergreen tree up to 39ft high. Its bright green leaves stand in pairs
on short stalks. The long buds have a rosy-pinkcorolla at the tip; as
the corolla fades the calyx turns red. The whole tree is highly
aromatic. The spice was introduced into Europe from the fourth to the
sixth century. Believed to be native to Indonesia; now cultivated
worldwide, especially in the Philippines, the Molucca Islands and
Madagascar. The main oil-producing countries are Madagascar and
Indonesia. Clove leaf oil is steam distilled from the leaf of the plant.
The medicinal properties reside in the volatile oil. If distilled with
water, salt must be added to raise the temperature of ebullition and the
same Cloves must be distilled over and over again to get their full
essence. The oil is frequently adulterated with fixed oil and oil of
Pimento and Copaiba.
