Pimenta-da-jamaica - inteira

I tossed a handful into my beef stew and got that deep, complex warmth without needing to measure three different spices. Even after simmering for hours the berries still held their shape.

The aroma when I opened the bag immediately filled my kitchen with that classic cinnamon-nutmeg warmth.
