Allspice
SpiceWinterUsed in ~3 drinks
A single berry that tastes like a blend of cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg — allspice (Pimenta dioica) is the cornerstone of Caribbean cocktail spicing, anchoring falernum, allspice dram, and tiki-style punches. Its warm, enveloping character is simultaneously familiar and exotic, adding a holiday-spice richness that feels celebratory without being seasonal. Allspice reads as the intersection of all warm baking spices.
Aroma
The nose is warm, round, and complex — cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg in equal measure, with a peppery undertone and a hint of dried fruit sweetness.
