Judges Comments:
These are well-dried nutmegs, freshly grated and neat, aromatic - exotically so. They certainly relay a wealth of flavour on the palate and are clearly bright and piquant in impact.
Once we grate the nutmeg the aromas that are released are truly stunning. There are warm sweet spice notes along with a beautiful fragrance that lingers as we taste and enjoy the purity of this nutmeg from Grenada. This shows Mother Nature and your harvesting at its best.
Such fresh perfumed aroma! Light and fluffy, but the flavour is incredible - so aromatic and again perfumed. There is a real depth and warmth in flavour with a citrus, grapefruit, flavour! It would liven and excite any dish it is added to.

The family farm grows many spices using organic practices, and they also run a bean-to-bar chocolate shop, goat dairy farm, petting zoo, café, craft market and restaurant that serves traditional Grenadian cuisine. Shadel's vision is to package local, homegrown spices to a wider market.
