Description
We offer organic clove leaf essential oil for food, obtained from the plant Syzygium aromaticum. International practice designates the liquid as Clove organic essential oil for food. The liquid owes its clarified purity to steam distillation, which separates the volatile substances from the green mass and leaves a fragrance with a clear spicy tone. The spicy tone goes together with the woody nuance and shapes the character of the product. The product comes from plantations under organic management, which is why its composition remains entirely organic by nature. The plantations are located in Bulgaria and bring together trees from the botanical family Myrtaceae. The family covers evergreen tree species in which the bark and foliage release aromatic volatile substances, while the crown of the plant reaches a medium size. The foliage of this species unfolds in large and opposite leaves, while numerous glands with aromatic secretion cover their leathery surface. It is precisely the leaves that serve as the raw material in obtaining the oil. The oil remains in liquid form and carries a colour between light brown and light yellow. The colour derives from the leaf raw material, since the green material brings soft yellow nuances into the liquid. The liquid unfolds a strong and rich odour with a well-defined character. The odour rests on an entirely organic base, in which eugenol leads among the volatile substances characteristic of the green part of this botanical species. There is no room in the base for preservatives and colourants, and organic cultivation maintains its uniformity. The uniformity is evident in the light yellow nuance of the clove leaf oil, which remains unchanged throughout the entire volume.

Application
Clove, Syzygium aromaticum, is one of the most widely used spices in the food industry, valued for its intense, warm and spicy aroma. The essential oil from the leaves is included in the production of confectionery, chocolates, festive products and desserts with a spicy character, to which it gives a distinctive warming note. It is applied in flavouring meat products, marinades, sauces and specialised seasonings in traditional and gourmet cuisine. It is included in recipes for spicy liqueurs, tinctures and spiced wines with a traditional character, as well as in hot drinks such as tea and mulled wine. The oil is combined with cinnamon, star anise, nutmeg and ginger to build characteristic oriental and festive aroma profiles. It finds application in fruit jams, honey cakes, baked goods and winter desserts with baked apples, pears and plums, as well as in creams and fillings with a spiced finish. It is suitable for organic and natural recipes in accordance with the European requirements for food flavourings.
