Description
Also known as Jamaica
pepper, Myrtle pepper, and newspice. Its name comes from its smell, which is
reminiscent of a combination of clove, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Central
American allspice produces a larger-sized berry than Jamaican allspice, similar
in size to small blueberries. It is suitable for mulling blends, pickling
mixes, potpourri, and crafts (such as pomanders).
