Nutmeg comes from an evergreen tree and is interesting because not only does this tree produce nutmeg, but it also produces the spice, mace. Nutmeg is the seed from the tree and mace is a red covering over the seed. Nutmeg is popular due to its usage as a spice and for health benefits such as reducing blood pressure and blood glucose level. Sri Lankan Nutmeg shows distinctive features as significant chemical compounds are conducive to its flavour and larger oil content.
