Clove Oil (Eugenia caryophyllata)
Fun fact:
During the Han dynasty, cloves were known as "tongue spice" and
courtiers were required to hold cloves in their mouths when
talking to the emperor.
Cloves were important in the earliest
spice trades, probably because of their importance in flavoring
foods. Known for their hot, spicy, pungent flavor, cloves are a
favorite seasoning spice for meats, baked goods, and beverages.
Besides its beloved place in the kitchen, clove essential oil is
a valued aromatic, and used traditionally as a remedy for skin
conditions, to calm digestive upset, and to relieve nausea.
However, it's best known for its use as both a breath freshener
and toothache reliever. Cloves remain an important spice
commodity, and today are used in everything from perfume to
mulled wines and from love potions to pomades.
