Allspice, in spite of its misleading name, is not a blend of many different spices but is actually the dried berry of the West Indian Allspice tree.

Product Details

About Hambleden:
Hambleden Herbs is a long established organic brand with a reputation for high quality products and efficient, friendly service. Their products have won many awards over the years, a recognition of the quality of the Soil Association certified organic herbs, spices, teas and tinctures which have always been their speciality.

Life for Hambleden Herbs began back in 1982 on an organic herb farm in the small village of Hambleden in the Oxford shire countryside. In 1985 our dried herb range was launched and at the time was the only certified organic range of dried herbs in the UK. With the launch of our organic herbal tea range 4 years later, Hambleden Herbs was fast becoming the brand of choice for the informed consumer.

As interest in organic ingredients increased demand soon outstripped available supply from the farm and the business had to look further a field to secure supply of top quality, certified, organic ingredients. This resulted in a new focus for the business, and a new company being set up to specialise in the sourcing and importing of raw materials. Although the two businesses now operate separately, they continue to use some of the same suppliers that they did 20 years ago, and still call on the wealth of expertise and knowledge of their old partner.

Today Hambleden Herbs continues to hold true to its values of “Purity, Vitality and Integrity”, using them to inspire new blends of teas, herbs and spices that will excite and awaken your senses.

Usage

Its name comes from its flavour, which contains notes of nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, black pepper and juniper. Visually, before they are ground, the Allspice berries look like large, smooth peppercorns. Allspice is used widely in Caribbean cooking where it is a key ingredient in dishes such as Jerk Chicken. In traditional cooking from the UK you will find it in many baking, Christmas pudding, pickle and marinade recipes
