Premium Indonesian Whole Cloves (Cengkeh) - Bulk Wholesale Exporter
Indonesia is among the world’s largest clove producers, and our whole cloves, locally known as cengkeh (Syzygium aromaticum), are sourced from established growing regions and hand-picked at the right maturity stage to preserve oil content. Properly dried whole cloves retain the high eugenol concentration that food, pharmaceutical, and aromatherapy buyers specifically look for.
Every batch is sorted to remove stems and foreign matter, then moisture-tested before packing. Buyers sourcing for essential oil extraction or eugenol isolation typically request oil-content data upfront, we test and share this figure per batch on request.
From flavoring in food manufacturing to raw material for clove oil distillation, our cloves are graded to match the intended end use.
