Clove Bud Oil









Ternate Moluccas Indonesia Clove bud oil.....The clove tree is endemic in the North Moluccas in Indonesia. Formerly the tree was cultivated on the islands of Ternate, Tidore, Bacan and the west coast of Halmahera. The Dutch extended cultivation to several other islands in the Moluccas. The trees were introduced to other countries only at the end of the Dutch monopoly.


The clove tree is a straight, handsome evergreen with flower buds, which in their unopened bud stage are picked green. They are dried in the sun until they turn dark brown. The buds resemble a broad headed nail. If the bud isn’t picked it develops into a fleshy, purplish fruit called the “Mother of Clove”.


clove Indonesians don’t use clove as a spice. Instead they use it for smoking, consuming 50% of the world’s production. Cigarettes flavored with cloves are extremely popular being enjoyed by almost every male.


Clove bud oil contains medicinal properties and is a strong germicide, antiseptic and local irritant.
