Pimenta Dioica (Sarvasugandhi / Indian Allspice)
Standardized Immature Fruit (Dried)
Shade-Grown in Western Ghats
The Organicsio Advantage
Organicsio sources Pimenta dioica exclusively from high-altitude agroforestry zones in the Western Ghats (Kerala/Karnataka border). Unlike common market varieties often adulterated with clove stems, our crops are genetically verified for high-density volatile oil content. We utilize a proprietary shade-drying protocol that prevents rapid volatilization of the essential oil, ensuring a Eugenol content consistently exceeding pharmacopoeial standards. All batches are rigorously tested for heavy metals and pesticide residues.
Botanical Morphology & Raw Material
Phytochemical Profile
The primary bioactive constituent is Eugenol (60-75%), which acts as a potent analgesic and antiseptic. The complex aromatic profile—mimicking a blend of clove, cinnamon, and nutmeg—is derived from secondary metabolites including Methyl Eugenol, Cineole, Phellandrene, and Caryophyllene. This specific chemotype offers superior antioxidant capacity compared to standard clove-derived eugenol sources.
Commercial Applications
- Clinical Nutrition: Digestive enzyme modulation and carminative formulations (anti-flatulence).
- Pharmaceuticals: Topical analgesics (rubefacient effect) and dental antiseptic preparations.
- Fragrance & Flavor: High-value fixative in perfumery and natural flavoring for beverages and bakery products.
