Guarded like treasures, their true origins concealed, spices like vanilla, pepper, cloves, cinnamon, and cardamom were once the cause of wars, mass murders, and significant colonial exchanges. Today, their flavors are well-known, but their origins remain a mystery to many.

These spices arose from unique habitats, formed by the interplay of climate, flora, and fauna, in specific regions. In our series, we explore these aromatic realms: vanilla from Mexico’s Gulf Coast, nutmeg and cloves from Indonesia’s Moluccas, cinnamon from Sri Lanka, and cardamom from Kerala’s Malabar Coast.
