Mace has a warm, aromatic, and slightly sweet flavor, with hints of nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves. Its unique flavor profile and aroma make it a popular ingredient in many cuisines around the world.Our mace comes from Madduma Bandara who pick the ripe nutmeg fruits and carefully removes the bright red, lacy, spirderweb like coating that surrounds the nutmeg seed. It is then sun dried. We source the spice together with Nihal and Remon of Eko Land Spices in Sri Lanka.
